Host (2020)

My quick rating - 6.4/10. For what they had to work with and being in lockdown during making this, I am very impressed. By far exceeds any of the nonsense the Paranormal Activity flicks did for scares. The actors were perfectly annoying as all hell, as I know they were supposed to be. This may bug you, but realize it was a necessary component of it. I would score it even higher had one thing constantly bugged me during this. No one on the planet if they were going through what these ladies were going through, would ALL be so desperate to make absolutely sure to be filming what was going on. When you watch, you'll know what I mean. Beyond that, though, this is a very good quarantine flick that I am sure is going to be huge due to just how timely it is. Bring on the onslaught of rip-offs that will be coming. Only time will tell if they can do better. Rob Savage does have a keen eye for tension, and I am looking forward to his upcoming take on The Boogeyman, which will be coming out in June 2023.

As you see, a Shudder original but is also available in a few other spots.
