Just one review this week:
The Host
Nope, not the recent tween film. The Host (2006) is a about a giant semi-aquatic mutant creature terrorizing Korea. There's something for everyone in this modern take on the classic Kaiju (giant monster) movie: a freaky-looking creature, silly slapstick humor, a young girl in trouble, a slacker turned hero, some great action sequences, and some surprisingly grim and serious moments, too. So whether you're in the mood for something different, or (like me) you grew up with a healthy dose of Godzilla and Gamera on Saturday mornings, this is a fun watch. It even gets the Wifey Seal of Approval despite the subtitles :-)
