The Room: The Best Worst Movie Ever Made?

from Celebrating Cinema · host LAB111

Hailed as the Citizen Kane of bad movies, The Room (Tommy Wiseau, 2003) has transcended its origins as an enigmatic vanity project to become a bona fide cult phenomenon. But how did it achieve such status, and what, beneath its layers of unintentional surrealism, is it really about? Hosts Laura Gommans and Tom Ooms unravel the film’s bizarre legacy, offering an essential guide to its chaotic production, the rituals of its legendary interactive screenings, and its place in the pantheon of so-bad-it’s-good cinema.Get tickets to The Room @ LAB111Get tickets to CC Film Club: Old Boy @ LAB111Get tickets to Straight to Video @ LAB111Get tickets to Go Short Film Festival
