Preview: The Host (2007)

• Poster: B

Review:

Classic horror poster reminds me of Jaws and other 70s scare-fests.

• Trailer: B+

Review:

With so many American production companies stealing ideas from the Japanese, Koreans and Chinese, it's about time that a Korean horror film found an audience without having to resort to American celebrity. The preview doesn't give away much plot and leaves you wondering what the monster looks like.

Oscar Prospects:

It won't get the recognition from Oscar that might legitimize the genre but overall, it's chances don't add up.

Release Date:

• March 9, 2007
