At first I was all "How can anybody hate The Host? That movie rules!"

Then I was all "No, that's not the movie he's talking about. But wait - Andrew Niccol has a new film? I love Andrew Niccol!"

Then I was all "seriously? You couldn't have solved that one by inspection?"

Oh no, its bad. The terribleness of the Host is so fucking obvious its hard to believe anyone will watch it.

But its way, way worse than Twilight. Twilight at least had dumb appeal and I guess with some imagination the romance was at least present. The Host is a shitty scifi movie with a bad romance subplot. Its transcends Twilight's awfulness in so many ways.

Outside of Z grade comedies like "A Haunted House," this might be the worst movie of 2013.

You owe it to yourself to see the Korean one as a palate cleanser.
