The Room
Some critics say 2003's The Room is the worst movie ever made. It was reportedly $6 million to produce and self-distributed by the star, producer, director. It’s become a cult event now, taking over a 5-theatre multiplex with midnight revelers who scream jokes, make fun of the characters, laugh at the genuinely bad lines and throw things at the screen. As an experience, it was a lot of fun, and I admittedly wasn’t in the mood for an ironically bad movie. Nevertheless, I laughed wholeheartedly at the snappy audience quips and the truly awful drama. I’m not sure if I’d see it again. Once may be enough. But it’s worth it for the laughs and the shared experience.
