I truly can’t call this a movie preview, as THE ROOM has been out for some 6 years now. Still it is a very safe bet that almost everybody has not seen this movie. And I can show you why.
Besides the company graphic, this movie trailer is probably the best collection of scenes of the entire movie. I could be wrong though as I have not seen the film. But the following are a couple of videos of the film that I found.
Sex talk – to really get you in the mood and make you care about the characters
Deep emotional angst
And absolute rage
Ok, you get the point. This has worse acting than maybe Gigli and Glitter (debatable), a worse script than most SyFy 'original' movies (arguable), and film editing – plus photography – that matches my worst on a very drunken night. To say this film is bad is the best compliment you can give it.
But is it the equal of say The Toxic Avenger? Or Nuke Em High? Or any Troma Entertainment film for that matter. Does this rise to the horrible joy of Attack of the Killer Tomatoes? Is it as beautifully horrid as Evil Dead (I or II). Some even dare to compare it to The Rocky Horror Picture Show.
Well that is probably best left to the viewer to decide. But this is becoming this generation’s midnight film fave. It cost $6 million to make, thus answering the question of whether anyone can make a low budget film with a decent amount of money. But Tommy Wiseau has to be commended as he raised the money without major Hollywood backing – what a shock!
The question before you my readers is not whether this is a bad film. It is unquestionably so. The question is whether this is so bad that you will laugh your buttocks off and enjoy the horror that is its film presentation?
