I loved The Host! The director, Bong Joon-ho, has made a couple of English-language movies recently, Snowpiercer and Okja, which are quite interesting too.
I watched The Human Centipede and absolutely hated it. Not necessarily because of the grossness of it, but it's a deeply, deeply stupid movie. What sort of commentary do you need to make on torture, anyway? I keep meaning to see Irreversible, but after seeing some of the director's other work I'm not sure I want to.
Anna And The Apocalypse sounds brilliant though, thanks!
Gerald's Game reminds me a little of Misery.
There are similarities, as with most of King's work. It shares more than a few ideas with Cujo as well, though a lot more introspective.
