Superhost

These have to be two of the most stupid characters ever in the lead roles. If you don't believe me, just watch for yourself. Nice, original idea that's ruined by execution and poor writing.

Would love to see a horror movie where the actions of tho protagonists were not totally stupid. The last 20 minutes could not have been dumber.

So, I was not expecting this, but Superhost is, in fact, the film from Christensen that I like the least (I really like Z and Still/Born).

The first act works really well, with some interesting modern approach and some good performances (especially Gracie Gillam) are there for all film saving it from being bad. I also applaude all the blood in the end, the ending itself and the courage to show us all of that.

However, I found the major plot twists really predictable, some similarities with other films who did better in creating the tension (Creep and Creep 2, of course) and some stupid decisions which were really distracting.

I just don't get why two people with all the knives they have at home don't decide to fight someone who has just a knife instead of running away?? And then what about all those times that they separated themselves when it's easier to understand that 2 vs 1 is different than two 1 vs 1? I guess these two vloggers didn't watch many horror films.

Overall the movie is slow. Things start happening that any person with an ounce of common sense would see as warning signs and leave. So if you want to see 2 stupid and vain vloggers go to a psychos house than this is for you.

Movie is fun, fast paced, entertaining, thrilling - very well spent 80 minutes!

Rebecca is an icon. Actress did a perfect job here. She's hilarious! Funny, scary, crazy - makes a perfect combination. In a lot of ways this reminded me of Creep(which I liked).

Now as for the negatives, protagonists are REALLY hard to like, I kept rooting for Rebecca the entire movie. Both of them have horrible flaws and unlikable personalities and it shows.

Would love seeing a prequel/sequel.

I really wish I could give it a higher rate but I feel like something is missing despite not knowing what exactly.. For now let it stay at 6.5/10.
