THE ROOM
‘The Room’ is a San Francisco-set love triangle involving a banker named Johnny (writer/director/screenwriter/ producer Tommy Wiseau), his friend Mark, and Johnny’s fiancée Lisa, who is sleeping with both men.
The film has built up a notorious cult reputation and has audience participation screenings in cinemas around the world still to this day. It truly defines so-bad-it’s good filmmaking, with laugh-out-loud bad dialogue, acting, direction, and story. There are lengthy, unerotic sex scenes; all of which clearly make the film that more enjoyable.
Come and see why “the ‘Citizen Kane’ of bad movies“ has audiences throwing plastic spoons at the screen, shouting out to the characters, tossing an American football around and turning up dressed in tuxedos. Be prepared, this film might change your life.
Welcome to the cult of ‘The Room’…
