THE ROOM: AN INTERACTIVE EXPERIENCE *** This screening will also feature a rare 30 minute behind the scenes documentary filmed by actor Greg Sestero (Mark) - after the film screens*** Oh, Hi Sydney! The cult phenomenon The Room returns to The Orpheum (an exclusive monthly event) and as always will be an audience interactive screening - so grab your plastic spoon at the door! Friday, 22nd August at 9:00pm Bring your friends, have a drink at the Orpheum bar (youll probably need two) and enjoy what has been referred to as The Citizen Kane of Bad Movies. The Room is a 2003 American independent romantic drama film starring Tommy Wiseau, who also wrote, directed, and produced the feature. Originally only shown in a limited number of California theatres, the film quickly developed a cult following as fans found humour in the films bizarre storytelling and various technical and narrative flaws. Within a decade of its premiere, the film was selling out showings around the United States and had inspired a video game, book, and traveling stage show. Tommy Wiseau unsuccessfully lobbied to get the film an Academy Award nomination and “fans” on his website are able to sign a petition to get Tommy a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. The Critics: The Citizen Kane of Bad Movies - Entertainment Weekly A movie so bad, so inept, so unbelievably painful, its almost impossible to comprehend anyone thought it would be great on-screen - Cinema Crazed If you experience brain damage as a result of watching this film, I disavow any responsibility whatsoever - Playback And thats the conundrum of The Room. Its so very bad that it becomes riveting - KPBS.org PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE gave me nowhere near as many belly laughs LYTrules A bona fide classic of midnight cinema, Tommy Wiseaus misguided masterpiece subverts the rules of filmmaking with a boundless enthusiasm that renders such mundanities as acting, screenwriting, and cinematography utterly irrelevant. You will never see a football the same way again - Rotten Tomatoes orpheum.au/coming-soon?view=movie&movie=O-THE-ROOM
