"The Host"


*In last year, 2006, South Korea launched the new monster rule via “The Host” which a story began from one U.S. civilain officer ordered Korean employee to drop the large amount of formaldehyde into the Han river – the main river in South Korea – in the year 2000. This action can cause the big problem with animals and resource in water. It can not refuse that it totally ruined animal circles by someone who was careless in the environment problem.

“The Host” reflected the carelessness of people who don’t concern in our world’s resource such as Han river. Because of this acting can create the fiece monster appears in South Korea and this animal prefers to eat human’s meat! This monster is look like a tadpole mixed with the lizard. The tadpole monster always keep living provisions to consume when it will hungry. It hangs from the ceiling like larva when it sleeps.

This movie also catchs the main theme by telling a story through one family- five family members. Grandfather, father – the leading actor of this movie who wears short blond hair, younger brother – a successful businessman, younger sister – a medal archor, daughter – who be loved by all of this family member. Then a daughter was caught by the monster to be a provision and she used a cell-phone to call back to her father. All of family tried their best to help her from the monster.

These are the a preview of this monster movie, “The Host”. The movie tries to make some conflict between two nations, the United States and South Korea. This movie can reflect the anti - American sentiments who led the birth of this monster and it is the sub-point of this movie. (pharaphase from www.npr.org, Movie Reviews by David Edelstein)
