Host: Chiamata mortale

It's pretty well done but a really shallow movie.

The Zoom angle adds a bit of freshness, but it's not as good as the first Unfriended.

lots of loud noises, shaky camera's and essentially a long series of jump scares knitted together - even at 60 mins it felt a bit too long

Inane chat, but fairly natural conversations, zero story, but what it does, it does well. Just don't come looking for something engaging - it's a ghostrain on film.

REVIEW - HOST

As we all know over the past 4 months there have been very few new films because of the pandemic, which in a strange way actually made this film even more enjoyable.

Filmed during lock down and referring to the situation around the current pandemic a shot UK film was released that probably no one has heard of.

A group of teens do an online Zoom session with a medium to try and see what would happen, of course things go wrong when one of them doesn't take it seriously and summons........

Small budget, but hugely enjoyable and even actually made me jump in one place!

Definitely one to watch but just a word of caution, don't watch it on a windy night and leave your Windows open so your doors move on their own, spooky.

Rating 7 out of 10

This was so much better than I expected.

It's low budget, made under restrictions and all this did for the movie was breed creativity. More films should try it. I think this movie is pretty creepy. When I was watching it I was pretty on edge. I also enjoyed that is was so short, the filmmakers had an idea and made it, it didn't matter to them that it wasn't over the hour and a half mark, they didn't pad it out so the movie is paced so well.

Rob Savage's 'Host' plays out like the greatest hits of found footage. It takes the scariest elements of genre favorites like 'The Blair Witch Project' (1999) and 'Paranormal Activity' (2007) and delivers a shock every few minutes. It is edited, crafted, and scripted well. The relaxed, naturalistic performances from the actors immediately create a sense of believability that helps when things start getting scary. A deceptively simple yet downright terrifying thrill ride.

OMFG this was a very surprising experience. I didn't read the comments about this movie, I didn't believe the ratings, but I really love this type of a horror. and the best is that it's only an hour long, everything is in point. don't expect much from this and you'll be rewarded 😈💜
