The monotony of her flight is punctuated by Annie singing/rapping until she arrives in England.
But it doesn’t happen.
Annie arrives at an empty cafe with the intention of picking up food.
The woman requests a favor take Angela (Faith Kiggundu) to an address she supplies.
Annie thinks she is getting dragged into a human trafficking room until Seylan gives her a wad of cash.
This is when the film takes a much darker and more interesting turn.
Annie takes nothing seriously, shes the poster girl for internet-obsessed people who only commit to parasocial relationships.
How Does ‘Dashcam’ Compare to ‘Host’?
These points could have been conveyed in a more subtle way.
The simplicity ofHostwas key to its success.
However, the second half of the movie is a full-blown horror nightmare worth your time.
Just be patient with Annie.
The Boogeymanis out now in theaters.
