Much to the annoyance of mother hen Haley, the friends don’t take it seriously, and she scolds them with the command that you, ‘don’t disrespect the spirits’ something that our Editor regularly does when he’s booted out of The Nags Head every Friday night.
So whilst those claiming to hear the spirits calling them usually as some part of ludicrous scam might well expect a Nigerian Prince in exile offering endless wealth in exchange for your bank details what the 5 women get is almost as bad.
Of course it won’t be and when summoner of the spirits, Seylan joins them with her reassuring Scottish brogue she guides them through the calling of long gone family over the internet. It rates up there with other great lies such as government quotes for building projects and of course that old favourite, ‘ ….but we can still be friends’. When a character says something like that we can only assume that they were they were also the same person who tells us that our mini cab is just around the corner. The Host here is Haley who along with five friends has organized an online séance unwittingly taunting fate yet misguidedly telling her friends, ‘Don’t worry. Filmed during lockdown ‘Host’ is a horror film using the video conferencing app Zoom, a business that has enabled many to work from home but has equally broadcast unwitting users appreciating ‘specialist interest’ websites.
