SYNOPSIS:
A séance performed via Zoom goes horribly wrong.
It was only a matter of time before ‘Lockdown Horror’ became a thing and the first past the post to claim this inevitable future buzzword as a badge of honour is
Host, a Shudder Original film given a special edition Blu-ray release by Second Sight Films.
Host brings the found footage concept up-to-date by replacing handheld cameras with phone/laptop cameras and showing a Zoom meeting between a group of friends who are holding a séance.
