Failed a Spot Check: Radina completely misses Alan's corpse hanging just above her while going to the bathroom. Facial Horror: From what we see of the spirit's physical form at the end, it seems to have had its face ripped off. Downer Ending: It appears as though nobody is left alive by the end, as the only ones not explicitly killed - Haley and Jemma - are last seen having the spirit lunge at them right before the Zoom call ends. However, she gets dragged away about 3/4 of the way through the movie, only appearing alive again at the very end just before she gets killed. 
she starts the Zoom call, instigates the plot, is implied to already be haunted, and has top billing.
The Danza: All those involved on-screen are using their real names as their character names. Cruel and Unusual Death: The spirit favours some horrific deaths, including bashing someone's head against their own computer and setting people on fire. Credits Gag: Going along with the previous trope, the credit for sound designer Calum Sample appropriately has its camera off and the microphone on full volume reacting to the sound of static crackling. Creative Closing Credits: The people who worked on the film are presented in a list as participants of the Zoom call after the call ends. The spirit hunts her down and kills her the second she attempts to escape her apartment. Alone with the Psycho: Emma is left completely alone shortly after Teddy's death. The cast and crew set up their own cameras, lighting, and stunts. Savage developed Host as the feature-length version of a short prank skit of his that went viral on social media in which he investigated strange sounds in his attic while on a Zoom call with a group of friends, including some of the eventual cast for Host, and captured their genuine reactions. When the possibility emerges that the strange happenings they start to witness may be the doings of an evil spirit that has invaded their homes, the group begins to realize they might not survive the night. However, they get far more than they bargained for as things quickly go wrong. 
The film revolves around a group of six friends who hire a medium to conduct a virtual séance. It was released exclusively through Shudder on July 30, 2020, the same day the events of the film take place. The film is distinct for taking place entirely in a screencast of a Zoom video call, and was not only shot during the COVID-19 Pandemic directly through Zoom over a 12-week period, but also sets its story in the pandemic as well. Host is a 2020 independent British supernatural horror film directed by Rob Savage.
