Still, as I always say with Screenlife horror, it is a fairly fresh feeling genre. It dates back to, at least, the early 2000s with the aforementioned Collingswood Story. The video chat horror movie isn’t a new concept. While it deserves lauding for its innovation during a difficult time. Host will seem incredibly familiar to you. If you have watched similar movies like Unfriended. Things start to take a drastic turn for the worse. When one of the girls, Jemma, suddenly claims to receive a message from a dead friend. She wants them to visualise someone they wish to talk to. Seylan instructs them to follow her instructions. They chat for a little among themselves before being joined by a medium called Seylan. The friends have decided to take part in an online séance. Taking place during the British Lockdown of 2020. Host follows the story of a group of friends chatting on Zoom. Were people feeling generous? Was Host the beneficiary of hyperbole and exaggeration from critics desperate for content? That is something we will find out in our review. It would be fair to wonder whether some of that reception was due to the situation at the time. Host offered a momentary 57 minutes of respite from the problems outside the front door. Unable to work, see friends or even take a leisurely trip to the shops. It’s fascinating stuff.Ĭoming during a time when the majority of people were stuck indoors. Performed their own stunts and retro scripted.
Almost live scripting them as they set up their scenes. Rob directed actors remotely through zoom. Inspired by movies like The Blair Witch Project and the fantastic Lake Mungo. Leading Savage to turn the concept into a feature film. Savage conceived the film when he made a short movie designed to scare his friends.
