The Host

Picture: Me, age 13, absolutely losing my sh*t in the theater as “Radioactive” by Imagine Dragons plays (my ringtone at the time), the camera pans up to a starry sky, and the credits start rolling. This is where I was first introduced to Saoirse Ronan, Jake Abel, and Max Irons.

THIS IS WHAT IVE BEEN IN THE MODD FOR LIKE THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I NEEDED. SOOOOO GOOOD the guy that was in love with wanda handling like the little life form so gently was soooo sweet and the ending was like super satisfying for me.

I was obsessed with the book as everyone says (I know how cliche and cringe) but the book was better just because there where scenes I wanted to see in the movie but overall I love the movie as a separate but connected thing

2013 me: curious about a movie that here aliens took over bodies and gave the bodies bright blue eyes (I have blue eyes, what can I say)

2025 me: absolutely emotionally devastated by this movie, after wondering about it for years.

A true comfort watch no matter how bad it is 😩
