The Host
ActionAdventureDramaHorrorRomanceSci-FiThriller125 min
After parasitic aliens occupy human bodies and erase their minds, Melanie Stryder refuses to disappear. An implanted Soul called Wanderer—soon known as Wanda—finds herself trapped in Melanie’s body with a host consciousness that keeps fighting back, and their shared mind becomes a problem for both species. Saoirse Ronan carries the film’s divided center, with Diane Kruger and William Hurt in the tightening hunt around them. As Wanda starts siding with Melanie instead of the alien mission, the story moves through a near-future Earth where the last unclaimed humans are hiding, resisting, and trying to hold on to one another.
