From Todd Haynes’ Safe to Paul King’s Bunny and the Bull, agoraphobia is alluring territory for fledgling filmmakers. It allows them to explore emotive, relatable character dramas while forcing them to get creative with a limited physical space. Such is the case with Keith Klopp’s Translations, which sees a housebound translator forced to confront her fears during a visit from her late brother’s best friend.
Stef (Kate Morgan-Jones) hasn’t left the house in years following the death of her older brother. Her isolation having exacerbated from an emotional episode to a fact of her daily life. She works from home and seems content within the confines of her rustic Welsh abode. However, the appearance of Evan (Alan Emrys), her brother’s best friend, opens her up to the possibility of escaping her fears.
It’s a tentative romance that these two forge, borne out of awkward,...

As someone who is extremely into online horror and found footage storytelling techniques, Rob Savage’s Host (which premiered this week on Shudder) was totally and completely up my horror-loving alley. With its lean and mean 56-minute running time, Host wastes no time whatsoever unleashing pure terror on both its cast and viewers, and I was wholly riveted and rattled as all hell broke loose on the screen. Make no mistake, Host is the real deal, folks, and co-writer/director Rob Sheridan (along with his entire team of collaborators) have pulled off something very special with their tech-infused nightmare.
Host follows a group of young women –Haley Bishop, Jemma Moore, Emma Louise Webb, Radina Drandova and Caroline Ward (all playing characters that share their own names) – who come together via Zoom during lockdown to hold a séance with the assistance of a medium named Seylan (Seylan Baxter). Their friend Alan...
