The Host 2
test sequence

This is about the sequel to the original The Host, not to be confused with the upcoming Stephanie Meyers adaptation.
The Host is one of the best creature features I've seen come out of Asian Market... ever. I think it set a new standard and should be a must see if your into that genre of film.

I didn't even know a sequel was being developed, let alone finishing up. I'm excited.

Here's some test footage.

The Host 2 has been 'happening' for a while. For such a while that I kind of forgot it was even in the works, or had maybe assumed it had come out in Korea and sucked so badly that it never quite made its way to the US. But no! The film is still coming! When is anybody's guess, but it must be soonish, since they've got this great action sequence totally complete, FX and all.

It's the first we've seen of the film, which is not from Bong but rather Park Myeong-chan, a commercials director. This clip comes from Micrograph, the Korean FX house that is creating the monster for this film. After the clip there's a 'making of' bit that's interesting.

I like what I see. I'm not sure if this will be anything other than The Host: More of the Same, but I'm willing to give it a shot.
