THE HOST Series: The 44th New York Film Festival [Sept 29 - Oct 2006] Director: Bong Joon-ho, Country: South Korea, Release: 2006, Runtime: 119
A smash hit in South Korea, the exhilarating third picture from Bong Joon-ho is the decade’s best monster movie. Its premise has a 1950’s purity: Toxins from a U.S. military base flow into the Han River causing the birth of a mutant creature (imagine the world’s hugest, most malevolent guppy) which proceeds to terrorize Seoul. When it grabs a little girl, her dysfunctional family must band together to save her.
As in his great 2003 cop film Memories of Murder, Bong uses a highly commercial genre to offer a pointed commentary on Korean society, with its conformity and greed as well its increasing alienation from America. The Host is everything our homegrown horror movies are not – funny, suspenseful, rich with ideas and intelligent about family values.
