The Black Room

I have no idea why this is rated so high. I actually had to look it up here to see if it was supposed to be a horror movie or comedy. It is like some trash movie filmed in the 80s. Plenty of nudity though if you are into that sort of thing. It really reminded me of the first Hellraiser. That movie was scary when it came out but if you watch it now it's laughable. At least it had a storyline worth following.

Good intro. Starts out with enough oversexed camp that seems to favor that back in the day horror movie style. Let's me know the tone that I should expect, which I was not expecting cause I was expecting a horror movie trying to actually do horror (At least I'm hoping this movie is not trying to scare me cause it did not work).  Gives the essence that this is going to be a light horror film metaphorically poking fun of the concept of how those slasher movies of the 80s seem to be all about sexual frustration. It was arousing watching  Natasha Henstridge give us a tease as a woman who moves into a house with her husband that seems to be haunted by an incubus (AKA a male sex demon), and of course it possesses her husband than tries to bang everything in sight, except for his extremely hot wife. Give the movie credit for equality as they had scenes of erotic horror that's not focus on women. Not my cup of tea but respect for attempting the balance.

I personally don't see a horror movie here, it's mostly a parody of this, which is not to say it's bad, it's actually really great for what it is, but if you are expecting to be frighten or see some scary monsters that's not gonna happen, but the imagery is definitely really cool to see, and Henstridge is still hot.

A young couple (Natasha Henstridge and Lukas Hassle) moves into the house of their dreams which quickly becomes a living nightmare when they discover a dark secret awaiting them in the cellar.

This film is getting some awful reviews. And yes, indeed, it is not a great movie. But look at it for what it is. I think Rolfe Kanefsky succeeds in what he set out to do -- get together a large handful of genre stars and get them to make a somewhat scandalous horror film.

Honestly, there are far, far worse films out there, especially in the horror genre. This one at least redeems itself by having a sense of humor. And yes, it is more smutty than I typically appreciate in a film, but that is exactly what it set out to be. So I can understand mixed feelings, but the overly negative responses seem harsh.

I watched about close to an hour of this trash and just couldn't watch it any more. I heard it was so bad it's good, and I have watched a fair few of the b movies they live up to that standard sadly this one didn't. The acting was terrible I have no idea if it that was intentional or not given the talents from the cast my guess is bad direction. There was no straight forward plot to keep you intrigued , a simple plot line to follow would have made a difference, all I know is a couple bought a house without inspecting it weird things happen for no reason that's about it. I heard it was supposed to be a parody or comedic elements , there was nothing funny at all apart from the bad acting. Dont go by the 9s and 10s of this, it is so bad it is actually bad.

This is simply a gawd awful film. There's not a believable character to be found, let alone empathize with. Generally I'm one to watch a movie to it's end once I've started it and this one was no exception. It was a complete 94 minute waste of time. The plot is hardly original but it could have (and has been) done much, much better than it is here. I've loved the horror genre ever since watching Bela Lugosi in Dracula as a kid many many years ago. There is absolutely no horror, or even a good fright, in this flick. How it's gotten any rating on here higher than a 2 is beyond me.
