Host brings literally nothing new to the table at all.
The friends get more evil spirits than they bargained for One of the friends doesn’t take the whole thing seriously and decides to make a joke at the expense of the seance – this angers the spirits who are also probably pretty bored of being on lockdown. Six friends decide to cure their Corona-19 blues by hiring a medium to hold a seance over a Zoom conference call. Host doesn’t do anything new, but it doesn’t waste your time and it delivers fairly well compared to many found footage movies. We watched Host on Shudder because everyone has been talking about it and found out that you can make a pretty effective movie that impresses everyone as long as theaters are closed and there is a global pandemic.

They created a rather original horror movie that does borrow stylistically (and somewhat thematically) from movies like Unfriended and Searching. I definitely admire the makers of Host for making the best out of a bad situation. It will be interesting to see how the movie holds up over the years with technology changing and time marching on. The movie does this rather effective…since many people hate sitting through Zoom meetings, a Zoom movie might not be everyone’s thing, but the movie is shot decently (the cast pretty much had to do their own work). While you do see the demon a few times, it is largely like a found footage movie where bumps, noises, and the framework of Zoom are played with for the visuals. This is what you get for breaking quarantine, Jemma
