As you may or may not know, I’m a huge fan cinema from down under, be it New Zealand or, as in this case, Australia. There’s just something so appealing – to me at least – about how films from that part of the world mix humour and horror to such tremendous effect. There’s nothing quite like an Ozploitation horror comedy: never too horrific, never too funny and oftentimes bordering on the absurd Without ever feeling like it.
An Ideal Host tells the story of Liz and Jackson, a middle-class couple who seemingly want to show their best side an the dinner party they’re hosting – fixating on giving the best presentation of the home, their food and even Jackson’s wedding proposal.
