Host (2020)
We are so back! It’s the worst pandemic in modern history, and we couldn’t be more excited (and terrified) to be trapped on a Zoom call with you (and a demon) again.Lockdown-era movies have been pretty unimpressive so far, but HOST is a VERY notable exception. This Zoom call has everything! A mopey quarantine boyfriend, a naughty grandpa, and… oh god is that a disembodied facetune filter?Next week, we’ve got two tickets to the most satanic talk show in television -- it’s LATE NIGHT WITH THE DEVIL (2024)!

Searching (2018)
The screen is life! The found footage genre infects MacOS this week with a truly horrific story of parenting, grief, and, of course, screens!!Is John Cho the most oblivious father in movie history? Or is the internet a terrible place that preys on society’s most vulnerable youths? Probably a little of both… but hey, at least we still had Addicting Games Dot Com!Next week, we fall even deeper into the screen abyss for Rob Savage’s HOST (2020).

One Cut of the Dead (2017)
There’s meta, and then there’s a movie thats so self-referential it basically takes place inside a Russian nesting doll. It’s the INCEPTION of the found footage genre!This week we’re getting to the center of a very, very crunchy tootsie pop. Another remarkable low-budget success story, ONE CUT is the type of movie that makes you want to pick up a camera and go shoot something… or behead some zombies. Either way, it’s inspiring stuff!!Next week we’re returning to the (nightmare) world of screenlife with Aneesh Chaganty’s SEARCHING.
