![]() You can check out the short film just below the trailer for Host at the bottom of this page (or just click here, to go there now!). This happened in April 2020 and it went viral. The Host movie happened after Rob Savage made a Zoom prank and shared this on Twitter. Rob Savage and Jed Shepherd previously made Dawn of the Deaf (2016) which is a short film I will definitely need to check out. ![]() The director is Rob Savage and the screenplay was written by himself along with Gemma Hurley and his longtime filmmaker-partner Jed Shepherd. Host was actually pitched to Shudder, who (fortunately) jumped at the chance to produce this movie immediately. Hey, I just want to stay safe and alive, okay?! And yes, I was the scaredy-cat that participated despite being scared sh*tless. And that is how you do found-footage right.Īctually, as a rule, most viewers should find themselves relating to at least one of the characters in this Zoom chat. She’s a believer in the paranormal, so she tries to catch strange events on film. ![]() She’s the protagonist in investigating whether something supernatural is going on. How wrong I was!Īlso, it did actually make sense later on since this one character would film something. Only one time during the beginning did I wonder why someone chose to film something, And my heart sank because I thought this would be yet another semi-decent found footage movie. With this Shudder found-footage movie, everyone should be reminded why movies such as The Blair Witch Project, Paranormal Activity, and Cloverfield made the genre a huge smash hit. The subgenre got a bad rep because filmmakers got sloppy when making them. And I do actually enjoy found footage movie. Not only is Host the perfect quarantine movie, it’s also one of the most well-executed found footage films I’ve ever watched.
