neutral · AI labelView post →The Host This movie brings together 2 of my favourite actors, Song Kang-ho and Bae Doo-na, who are always incredible. It's about a somewhat dysfunctional family who come together after a monster run amok in Seoul grabs the youngest family member, and defying the government, track down the creature.

neutral · AI labelView post →Having a silly, harmless debate that I’ve had before. Topic: is The Host a “kaiju film”? I lean no, but why? I keep coming back to: 1. Not a suit 2. Not Japanese 3. Not gigantic I don’t think you absolutely need all 3 of those to be a kaiju film, but you need at least one, maybe two?
neutral · AI labelView post →hugely underrated Bong Joon-ho film, was lucky enough to see it on the big screen back in the day because I'd loved 'The Host' so much I badgered the owner of our local art house theater to book it- great call, Past Me!

neutral · AI labelView post →Watched Bong Joon Ho's Okja (2017). It's about a genetically modified giant 'super' pig that a company wants to use for promotion and slaughter, while the farm girl it grew up with joins an activist group to save it. This is like a companion film to the director's other creature feature, The Host.

neutral · AI labelView post →I do think this film is Bong Joon Ho’s best film but it’s not my favourite film from him. I think THE HOST goes unnecessarily hard and I adore it.

This is one of the directors previous works and it's really quite incredibly good! Monster movie told from a dysfunctional families perspective. #filmsky #moviesky #horrorsky

Between Memories of Murder & Mother, BJH made this delightfully insane monster movie — all his sociopolitical, family & class divide tropes are still at the core — but ultimately what we’ve got here is a giant salamander hunting people for food #shocktober #horror

He drew inspiration from Godzilla for the film's tone and from Seven Samurai for its rainy climax. #TBT
