The Host starts with like 15 minutes of personal relationship stuff (like Cloverfield)

and then BAM FUCKING MONSTER TEARING THROUGH A PARK

after that? AT LEAST 15 more minutes of weird-ass non-monster stuff

so, let's talk about monster movies and why they're awesome and how sometimes they should just leave out the backstory

    Would you count the Alien and Predator movies as monster movies?

    The Host is a fucking fantastic movie and your bullshit about how it needs less story is just that.

    Bullshit, maaaaaaaan.
