Call me one of the few here that seems disappointed with the lack of originality with this HOST 2 movie. First off the creature design. Why the hell does the creature look almost exactly the same, right down to the fish stuck in its body and huge mouth? I mean I loved the design for the original monster, but how likely would another exactly same a-symmetrical monster form from a polluted lake? I want something slightly more original or at least different looking.
And then the chase sequence and the characters involved. Not sure if those human characters, namely the kids just make a cameo. But why the hell do we have a girl wearing a similar looking school uniform and a kid that looks almost the same as the previous homeless kid from the first movie? Though the girl from this clip is younger than the girl from HOST 1, this new kid has the same hairstyle? Judging from this small clip it really does seem more like a tech demo that was made as a homage to the original movie.
I sure hope none of this shows up in the final film.
