Yep, still ill. And getting a bit fed up with it now. So, in order to make myself not fear illness at all, I decided to watch a movie called The Invasion. All about people who get ill and have their bodies invaded by aliens that are slowly taking over the human race. And if you're thinking that this sounds like the plot of The Host (or, I've been informed, World's End), you're right. It takes a slightly different point of view, but the premise is basically exactly the same.
However, it's not badly done. As alien invasion movies go, it's actually pretty enjoyable and kept me watching. Of course, I knew pretty much who was going to survive and who wasn't (this is a Hollywood alien invasion movie, after all), but I didn't necessarily know how we were going to get there. Pretty average, but enjoyably so.
Rating: 3.5 out of 5
