An ARG For The Host
Magnolia Films has come out with a new ARG ahead of the release of
The Host
on
March 9th.
Monster
Hunters Club looks innocent enough at first glance, but a trip to the forums
quickly reveals that thereâs something sinister going on beneath the surface.
Help solve puzzles and make the connections between amateur cryptozooligists,
a beautiful 19-year-old Korean film student, a grandson
finding out what happened to his army-scientist grandfather,
and weird creature sightings that seem to be getting more numerous by the day.
The Host is a story about Gang-du works at a
food-stand on the banks of the Han River. Dozing on the job,
he is awakened by his daughter, Hyun-seo, who is angry with him
for missing a teacher-parent meeting at school. As Gang-du walks
out to the riverbank with a delivery, he notices that a large crowd
of people have gathered, taking pictures and talking about something
hanging from the Han River Bridge. The otherwise idyllic landscape turns
suddenly to bedlam, when a terrifying creature climbs up onto the riverbank
and begins to crush and eat people. Gang-du and his daughter run for their lives,
but suddenly the being grabs Hyun-seo and disappears back into the river. The government
announces that the monstrous thing apparently is the Host of an unidentified virus.
Having feared the worst, Gang-du receives a phone call from his daughter who is
frightened, but very much alive. Gang-du soon makes plans to infiltrate the forbidden
zone near the Han River to rescue his daughter from the clutches of the horrifying Host.
