10) Bong Joon-Ho - The Host (2006)

The Host, directed by Bong Joon-ho, is an engrossing, socially conscious monster movie that deserves more recognition. This horror flick from South Korea is an amalgamation of different genres; it also provides some witty humor and poignant commentary on the incompetence of the government and social class. Balanced with impressive creature effects and an absorbing narrative, The Host, an underrated gem is often overlooked in the wake of Bong's later Oscar-winning success for Parasite.
