Princess From the Moon (1987)

Toho’s tradition of shoehorning random monster attacks into their otherwise unrelated science fiction and fantasy efforts continued well into the ‘80s.

Footage from The Host 2 (Gwoemul 2)! I hadn’t realized it was already in production! Sweetness those effects are goooooood. So lovely to see the monster in highdef.

I am a HUGE FAN of The Host. It is one of my favorite monster movies by the amazing director/writer Joon-ho Bong. If you can, watch it in Korean with english subtitles (the dub is terrible imo). Can’t recommend it enough.

I don’t know who wrote the sequel, but it doesn’t look like Joon-ho Bong is directing :c  curious to see how much the tone will change.

A statue of the monster from The Host in South Korea. At one point it was being displayed at Yeouido Park in Seoul; I’m not sure if that’s still the case.
