From IKing KongI and IGodzillaI to IThe BlobI and IJawsI, cinematic monsters leave us both in awe and terror, as we contemplate our affect on nature. In its bold continuation of the monster movie tradition, IThe HostI is both shocking and surprising, but not because of graphic violence or exploited terror. It breaks from genre conventions so quickly, that you are left off-kilter, not knowing what to expect next. Its a monster movie that plays like the filmmakers have never seen another monster movie, and its a breath of fresh air in a rather stale genre.
