The Host
2007-03-10 / 11:57 p.m.
Went to see The Host (Gwoemul) with M & M Wood. Korean mutant monster movie. Good, not terrific (I mean, Joon-ho Bong is no Park Chan-Wook), but certainly better than any American monster/horror movie I've seen in a while. Mostly deals with genuine terror and helplessness as opposed to the kind manufactured with effects and cliched creepy images (as seen in trailer for Dead Silence).
We would have gone to see 300 but the Imax was sold out. Oh wells.
