The Room

Tommy Wiseau – 2003 – USA

I’d always heard about how awful this movie was, but it still blindsided me.  It seems to be some kind of vanity project by hideous, talentless writer-producer-director-star Tommy Wiseau.  Apparently it’s become something of a cult favorite, with fans attending special screenings to marvel at the film’s countless glaring flaws.  After about 15 minutes I’d had more than enough of Wiseau’s bare body and so-called “acting,” and I had no idea what the story was supposed to be about, but I had to keep watching just to see how much worse it was going to get.  I suppose at least we can say that Wiseau has done aspiring filmmakers everywhere a great favor, because no one need fear being called the worst as long as he is alive.
