One of the most misunderstood and entertaining movies of all time that isnt mainstream! If someone doesnt find enjoyment out of it then they likely are having things go on in their own life that is shadowing their thoughts and views.

An emotional rollercoaster, a beautifully executed classic that has gone down in history as a cult classic.

never in history has there been more consistently bad performances, more lame written, more badly dubbed, more lifeless hunk of vile that is just so bad that it is so good, but it still is abysmal.

TheI have seen a lot of bad movies, some have novelty value, some are guilty pleasures and some are downright atrocious. As inept and as appalling as The Room is, for me it belongs in the unintentionally funny/complete train wreck category. The film in my opinion is quite badly made. The settings are dull in the lighting and feel very limited and overly-compact, while the cinematography and editing are some of the worst I've seen in a while. The music feels jumpy and doesn't fit with some scenes, while apart from one classic "I feel like I'm sitting on an atomic bomb waiting for it to go off" the dialogue is inane and painfully cheesy, the story is thinner than a sewing thread, the direction is one of the most inept directing jobs I've encountered in recent years and the film in its pace is painfully slow in many spots. The acting is also atrocious from everybody involved. Tommy Wiseau is a big reason why The Room is so bad, he shows little talent for writing or directing, while his acting fares even worse as I can't remember a single moment where he didn't make me cringe. All in all, a truly inept film, might have some novelty value, but even that can't hide how appalling The Room is. 1/10 Bethany Cox Expand

No movie could possibly be this bad by accident.

I submit that Tommy Wiseau—or at least the people who could have stopped him but didn't—set out to produce the single crappiest piece of cinema ever made, possibly as a send-up of the contemporary standards. Assuming that unparalleled mediocrity was his aim, I give this film a perfect 10. My mind actually refuses to believe otherwise, because it would take a psychotic mind—nay, a gathering of several—to look at this and go "this is good."

The entire cast is absurdly bad at acting... the script could have been written by a grade-schooler... the dark soundtrack plays at the most pointless times, and disappears when it's needed... the "moments of insight" in the dialogue are impossibly cliched and shallow... the story takes 100 minutes to do what it could in 10... unintentionally side-splitting sex scenes are interwoven with boyish football tossing scenes while the remaining 30% of running time (a.k.a. the most insipid plot ever, anywhere, ever) spins its wheels at or under 1 mph... the ADR is off by a mile...

You reach bad movie nirvana when protagonist Johnny actually says another character's lines while the latter's voice is still dubbed in.

It's as if Wiseau wanted people to experience what happens when the absolute worst of everything comes together. Worst actors, worst director, worst screenwriter, worst lighting, worst editing, worst cameramen, and poof! Genius.

Nobody anywhere could ever make a worse movie no matter how hard they tried. In my humble opinion, that's why The Room is a monumental success. I mean, anybody could throw a handful of crap at a wall, but it takes a special kind of person to evenly paint the entire room with it.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. There's not really much I can say about this movie that hasn't already been said. The movie itself is trying to be sincere with the story and message it's trying to convey, the only problem is that it's also inept at doing so.

So many of the performances come across as comedically robotic. There are plot point that are brought up that never come back to be addressed (here's lookin' at you cancer mom). Of course the man, the myth, the legend Tommy Wiseau gives a passionate but unhinged performance. So much of his line delivery is extremely quotable and will be reiterated by fans and detractors alike. The Room is an amazing experience and should definitely be watched with a group of friends with drinks.

Film Born From The Neurotic, Misogynistic Thoughts Of A Cuckolded Man?

Yesterday I watched 'The Room' (2003) so I could then watch 'The Disaster Artist' (2017 - 6/10, Franco's Wiseau impersonation was neither 100% accurate or a hilarious caricature) and then maybe 'Room Full Of Spoons' (2016/2020, documentary - but maybe Wiseau's been ridiculed enough).
This film is so bad it's become cult viewing, yet the overall plot will be familiar to most people despite it being a subject rarely covered by mainstream movies. It's like they've filmed the looping neurotic daydream thoughts of a cuckolded man, hence several lines and ideas are repeated and much of it is illogical or doesn't really fit. The script sounds like it was written by an 8 year old - an 8 year old monkey. Tommy Wiseau's acting is as though he has brain damage, or is heavily sedated with anti-psychotic drugs. Alternatively, like an android that's failed the Turing Test. The other actors weren't quite as bad, but with their lines and Wiseau's direction it's hard to be sure if they're actual professionals or not. Terrible film with many illogical moments, but somehow still feels more real and relevant than most films. The audio and video quality is largely okay, and the music actually wasn't too bad, plus there's a few soft-core sex scenes - if you think that's a redeeming feature. 3/10.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I'm giving this movie a 10 based on the enjoyment of the film. Not the quality. It has so much passion and charm Tommy wiseau put his all into this film and it shows. It is often hilarious and the only parts that I dont really enjoy are all the pointless sex scenes where hes having sex with Lisa belly button. But this movie has been in my lifet for the past ten tears and was introduced to me through a friend and we would have midnight screenings at my house water bottles, spoons. Etc.i miss this bond it gave my friends and I. Although i no longer hang out with any of them this movie was a piece of the fabric which held my friends together. Thank you tommy wiseau for all the good times. Expand

There is nothing, absolutely nothing that has not been said about this movie. This movie, in a nutshell, is a passionate work of someone who understood filmmaking in a completely wrong way. All that I am trying to say in this review has already been said before, most probably. So, sorry if I didn't say anything new and remarkable. .
.
The bad which are, ironically, also the good : To begin with this masterpiece of **** films, I am literally confused. You know, I always put a "Spoilers" tag if my review contains potential spoilers. But I don't do it if I simply have to talk just about the plot. The thing I am confused about is that whether or not I should put that tag in this review. I finally decided not to put it, but I am not satisfied. That's because, I have to talk about its plot in general, but that would be a spoiler. That's because the movie has nothing except a general plot. There's a guy called Johnny, who loves Lisa but Lisa doesn't love Johnny, so she sleeps with Johnny's best friend, Mark. That's all. There's no story to it whatsoever. I mean, literally. The movie does nothing. The ideas in this movie are terribly horrible and horribly terrible at the same time. And the ideas (which means random scenes) are so chosen that they are the most inappropriate ones. And those inappropriate ones are further executed beyond the extent of being absolutely bad. None of it makes any sense. It cuts randomly to gratuitous sex scenes at least expected moment, if there were anything so predictable in this movie. The mood swings of some characters are just hilarious. They laugh at so awkwardly at some serious **** they go from serious ass **** to hey, I am happy let's play football and from talking about confidential stuff to sex life in a matter of seconds. Towards the end, two characters engage in a fight, they get cool and they start fighting like after ..... 12 second or so. All of this is totally bizarre. And the writer + director + lead actor + producer + producer again, the weirdest dumbo as well as the dumbest weirdo Mr. Tommy Wiseau loves showing his filthy ass to the people, because he probably wants to sell this movie. We have an insane time tolerating this movie. He shows his ass for God's sake. Apart from this, there are way many scenes which pop out for no reason, and are resolved without conclusion. But, in all this, the main thing is it repeats the outline of the plot again and again. With same set of dialogues between the same two characters in the same room just with a different camera angle! There are many infamous scenes that you might have heard about, and I can't even describe them. If I could just show you those scenes .... Ah man! It's just incredible. If you need to show something and cannot simply describe it, it's a **** masterpiece! The acting .... oh my God! Except in "Gunda" (1998), I have never seen so blant kind of acting ever in any movie. There's no reaction to some "emotionally weighty" dialogues, and there's some bizarre and awkward chipping like a **** chicken at the most inappropriate times. People are either flat or way way way way way way way way too over the top. It's either no acting or extreme over acting. Yeah, I forgot to mention. There are numerous football scenes, pointless dialogues, huge continuity errors and uncountably many plot holes. This movie is quite educational. It's a lesson of what to NOT do while making a movie. But, it's incredibly entertaining. .
.
Conclusion : Looks like Wiseau did all that he wanted to do. Obviously what he does is trashy, but, he at least exhibits his passion. You would definitely like to check it out. This is one of those movies which you have to see to believe their existence. It's the greatest worst film ever made. .

Really ambitious for a softcore porno.

The Room is auteur filmmaking at it's most befuddling. I'm pretty sure Tommy Wiseau had some sort of message about life and love that he wanted to give us. Maybe even one that was deep and insightful.

The Room is auteur filmmaking at it's most befuddling. I'm pretty sure Tommy Wiseau had some sort of message about life and love that he wanted to give us. Maybe even one that was deep and insightful. It's impossible to tell though as the movie is incomprehensible.


It runs on a loop of the characters having the same conversations over and over again with the occasional nonsensical moment or long, drawn out sex scene thrown in to break up the monotony. The dialog the cast was given is atrocious and they seem to be playing people who are only capable of making the dumbest possible decisions at any given moment. The acting isn't as bad as you would expect. With the exception of Sestero and Wiseau himself I actually thought there were some decent performances for a movie of this caliber. Sestero seems uninterested in really trying as a result of being fully aware of just how bad the project was going to turn out. Wiseau on the other hand is just a block of wood. Even his fits of rage seem devoid of energy.


The direction and writing are just all around terrible. But rather than creating something that's painful to watch, Wiseau's ineptness both behind and in front of the camera inadvertently led to The Room becoming strangely lovable instead. It's still an awful movie, but at the same time it's hard to not be entranced by the unnatural interactions between everybody onscreen as it's all just too funny. As uncomfortable as the sex scenes are to watch I couldn't help but laugh. They have the corniest love songs playing overtop of them and Wiseau apparently doesn't know where the vagina is located. I couldn't tell is he was putting it between her breasts or just had some sort of weird bellybutton penetration fetish. The whole thing is a great source of unintentional hilarity. I'm not sure that's cause enough to recommend it though.

This is because the bad performances are entertaining to watch and that makes this film special, this film is so bad it's good.

The main character of Johnny instantly made an impression on me from the moment he stepped on screen, and the supporting actors only made him better. Tommy Wiseau is one of those men who can produce, act, direct, and edit all at the same time on a godly level that no one had ever witnessed before now. His performance cemented himself as one of Hollywood's elites and made the already-great supporting cast even more enjoyable to watch. The plot is perfectly paced and varied, with all scenes coming together at the end for an impeccable finale. No talent is wasted or misdirected, and the dialogue is so hauntingly realistic that it makes it hard to believe that the actors were given a script to work off of. Overall this film gets a 9.9/10 from me, the only thing that is holding it back is that the 1.5 hour run time is just painfully short, and makes the film seem like only a snippet of what these talented people can really do.

There a lot of sex sequences it the movie that last for many minutes and just for no reason and no meaning, at the beginning of the movie there are 2 sex scenes with the same woman with 2 different men that took like 10 minutes. Some dialogues are just dubbed after the movie in post production, and it sounds awful in the movie, cause it's easily noticeable the change of voice quality between studio and shooting, not to mention the lip movement that ends up getting very weird. I can feel that they tried to put some epic shots, wiht beautiful ambience and some nice music in the back, and it kind of works like how it's done, just not how it was suposed to. But it really makes you laugh and have some fun, that famous punch line followed by the "hahaha" that got me everytime. A terrible love triangle story that becomes a GREAT involuntary comedy. Tommy Wiseau, Thank You. Expand

To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand 'The Room'. The humour is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of psychology most of the jokes will go over a typical viewer's head.
No, seriously, you have to be fairly intelligent to find this film funny. All of it is completely unintentional. Tommy Wiseau looks at the world through alien glasses. His total lack of self-critique, his almost perfect confidence in his writing/acting/directing is staggering. Not a single thing in 'The Room' is what it's meant to be. Jokes aren't funny, serious moments are hilarious, sex scenes are all the same and off-putting. It takes the one and only Tommy Wiseau to do what others simply can't. This isn't 'a poo on a stick' type of art. This is an attempt to create another Mona Lisa by someone whose painting skills stopped developing at the age of 5. I had a tremendous fun watching this movie. I give it 9/10 only because it wasn't longer. All hail the true galactic overlord Tommy Wiseau!!

There's a fantastic book called The Disaster Artist (now also a movie) which tells about the making of this... "thing" and also about the friendship between the director, Tommy Wiseau, and the actor who plays Mark, Greg Sestero. I highly recommend it and I also recommend watching this movie just so you can say that you've seen The Room, you'll love it. Expand

Most bad movies are forgotten because of how forgettable they are, but The Room is so inept, so random, and so bizarre that it achieves cult-status at how horrible it was! It's kind of sad, because Tommy Wiseau did pour his heart and soul in this project. It just ended up being famous for all the wrong reasons.

Worth watching with friends. Can't wait for The Disaster Artist!

Tommy Wiseau's The Room is the ultimate drama movie.

It's a human story about a love triangle and infidelity. It's got everything. Sex scenes involving the bellybutton, people tossing footballs around, tuxedos, underwears, infidelity, cassette tapes, chicken sounds, rooftop scenes, accusations of domestic abuse, drug dealers, a psychologist, a cute doggie in a flowershop, even pillowfights.

But most of all, it's full of unforgettable one-liners. From You are tearing me apart Lisa (a reference to James Dean, a favorite actor of Tommy Wiseau), to How's your sex life. From You are just a little chicken chiiiip chipchipchip chiiiiiip, to I just like to watch you guys. From I 'm tired I 'm wasted I love you darling, to Keep your stupid comments in your pocket. The moment Johnny utters "Hahaha what a story Mark" after he was told about a woman who was severely beaten by one of her 12 lovers is glorious. Even more glorious is the "I did not hit her. [...] Oh hi Mark!" scene. Not to mention the epic scene where the enraged and fed-up-with-this-world Johnny smashes his apartment. Absolutely thrilling moments, all of them.

As Johnny himself would say, if more people watched The Room (as well as read Greg Sestero's biographical book The Disaster Artist and watch the upcoming movie with James Franco), the world would be a better place to live.

After so much noise about The Disaster Artist, I decided that it was finally time for me to see The Room, I will be honest, I wasn't really excited or interested, I had been putting it off for quite some time and it is not because I wasAfter so much noise about The Disaster Artist, I decided that it was finally time for me to see The Room, I will be honest, I wasn't really excited or interested, I had been putting it off for quite some time and it is not because I was worried to see a garbage film, I have seen many movies that could earn the nickname of the worst that cinema has given quite easily, but it's very simple, the movie has nothing to attract you, absolutely nothing.

But anyway, I did it and the damage is already done but what can I say? How can I avoid releasing a torrent of anger wrapped in objective criticism?

The Room is perhaps the worst movie I have ever seen in my life and yes it is probably one of the worst in history, this movie is an argumentative and narrative vomit that lacks of all the basic rules of cinematic language, it is as disconnected as stupid and boring, is as unsuccessful as indescribable and lets say it, the background story of the script has a thematic full of clichés but any screenwriter with some talent could have made something respectable from it, but Wiseau's script is a **** disaster. A **** disaster to which he gave a beginning and an ending but everything else is just crap.

Believe me, unless you are someone like me who always finishes a movie or worse you enjoy it, I do not know how a regular audicence could find reasons or excuses to continue after the first twenty five minutes.

And it's not only the lousy script or the bad direction, The Room is also plagued by such miserable performances that I cannot understand how they moved forward when they were editing. Everything looks neglected, false, overacted and most importantly, everything looks lost and out of focus, not only is the stupidity of the dialogues and the abandoned narrative threads, it's the way in which these things come out of the mouth of the actors. What was their motivation? I ignore it, maybe I should read the book or Franco's movie will throw some answers, otherwise it will remain an incredible mystery for me.

Leaving aside the film a little, what concerns me now is what the film has become, because for those who do not know this movie is now considered a cult film, yes a cult film, with special screenings in which Wiseau finally has some success and hhe embrace it without any kind of reluctance, let's say that it was the success he longed for, but it's worth asking if it's valid to find success in mediocrity.
Who are to blame for it? Who creates it or who consumes it? And don't get me wrong, I always advocate for what people enjoys or love, but you have to be able to draw a line, because if they convert this type of mediocrity into success what does it says about the spectators? What about the great films that are ignored annually and are condemned to the dark while this is the object of admiration and success? What do we aspire to? Failing in order to achieve fame by being a joke? Honestly with what I've seen in the trailers and the interviews, that's precisely what Franco is doing, maybe Wiseau ignores it or if he doesn't, he let it go, in one way or another the recognition is already his.

Honestly, avoid it, stay away from The Room, there is nothing in it nor you will learn anything from it, it is a miserable movie, a crushing failure with all its letters, is bad and yes, not even the involuntary humor works for a ****

Me and 7 of my friends were having a movie night yesterday and my friend Stephen brought this with him, claiming "I don't know what this is and apparently no one on the planet doesThis is easily the worst 'thing' that I've ever sat through. Me and 7 of my friends were having a movie night yesterday and my friend Stephen brought this with him, claiming "I don't know what this is and apparently no one on the planet does so we should watch it." There was me, Stephan, Mason and Shane who are all male and Anna, Katie, Zoe and Gina who are female (I'm saying this just so I can establish and go into more detail about one of our reactions later) and all of us had different reactions to what we were seeing. Me, Mason Anna and Katie were looking on in confusion throughout the whole thing, Stephen and Shane were laughing uncontrollably, Gina was offended and Zoe fell asleep.

There was just so much stuff wrong in this thing that I repeatedly asked the question "why was this made? What possessed Tommy Wiseau to make this? Did he intentionally make this bad? Did he make this to
settle debt? Did he actually think he could become a memorable film director?" I can only answer one of those questions, he became a memorable film director/producer/writer/actor but for the wrong reasons.

Where do I start? The acting is some of the worst caught on camera. I was in an amateur theatre production by Queen's hall arts called Minor's Strike and I would like to emphasize, it was an amateur production and all of our acting was praised in the performance and I was 13 at the time. These actors, who are around their 30s/40s are acting worse than we did and we were amateurs and hadn't taken acting
school at the time. Tommy Wiseau is easily the worst though. He is the worst actor and this film and what goes well with a bad actor you might ask? Badly written dialogue for this bad actor to spout out.

"We have a new client at the bank we make a lot of money, anyway how is your sex life" This is an actual piece of dialogue that was delivered by Tommy Wiseau, imagine that an 8 year old French boy is saying this line and you will get Tommy Wiseau's whole performance.

There are also these really uncomfortable sex scene moments which is what Gina was offended by. I know that we're in an age where the ESRB raters are awfully sceptical about letting certain age demographics
watch certain movies and usually controversy is applauded by audience and that's why Harvester and Hatred got as much attention as they did but this thing in The Room, these sex scenes which is applauded by possibly the horn word (not allowed to say it because of Metacritic's rules) teenage boy demographic, these sort of scenes are just plain awkward for people to sit through. Also, there is about 5 of these
uncomfortable sex scenes in this film, each lasting about 5 mins. Which means the total amount of time we spent watching some porno was just under 1/3 of the film.

There are also these really weird scenes that don't go anywhere. They happen and then that's it.

I wish there was a way that I could unsee this film and none of you get this film, even if you're curious, don' get it. I wish to never see Tommy Wiseau in anything again, if he even is in anything else and if he is, there's something wrong with this world.

When it comes to filmmaking, there are specific rules...it's not just about picking up a camera, hiring some people off the street to be your actors, and then writing whatever story you want to tell...

...This is where Tommy Wiseau's cult masterpiece 'The Room' comes in, a movie that essentially doesn't know how to be a movie. It is written, produced, directed by and starring Tommy Wiseau as a banker named Johnny.

Johnny lives a sort-of happy life in San Francisco, he is engaged to his "future wife" named Lisa (Juliette Danielle), I use the term "future wife" because that's what this movie is saying. The first problem with their chemistry is pretty much everything, they do not look like a couple...if you saw the two of them walking down the street, the last thing you would ever think is them being madly in love. Wiseau looks way too old for her.

The first half-an-hour of this movie is four different sex scenes...these scenes drive the movie nowhere, they just put the movie to a dead standstill. The sex scenes are not at all steamy in the slightest...they are actually quite hard to watch.

Later we discover that Lisa is having some extra on the side, she calls Johnny's best friend Mark (Greg Sestero), and it turns out that she seduces him and they have sex...on the swirly staircase...that is a very interesting location since the bedrooms are only a few steps up the stairs, and that the front door is beside the staircase, so it's a surprise that none of them get caught. That was close.

There are so many subplots added to the movie that also lead it nowhere, we hear about Lisa's mother Claudette (Carolyn Minnott) having breast cancer, we never hear about this later on in the movie...we even see Claudette in later scenes of the movie and her health doesn't seem to have deteriorated. There is one pointless scene where we see the young character named Denny (Philip Haldiman) getting into some trouble with a big thug named Chris R (Dan Janjigian)...this scene is over before it even begins. And, of course, who can forget the football scenes...

...this is really where the film (can I even say it's a "film"?) starts to get dragged down by pointless padding. There is this one scene where we see the main characters; Johnny, Mark, Denny and a psychologist named Peter (Kyle Vogt) dressed up in tuxedos, so you think it's finally the wedding day of Johnny and Lisa. Nope! Wrong, they end up going outside, and toss around the football about three times (yes, I counted), and then Peter trips and falls over, and they decide to go back inside the house. What was the point of this scene? If you took this scene out, it would not affect the movie, but then again, it wouldn't improve much either.

Later on in the movie, Johnny decides to record phone calls as he begins to grow suspicious that Lisa is hiding something. This is sort-of important later.

We cut to Johnny's birthday party and all of his friends are there...apart from Peter, if you've read Greg Sestero's book "The Disaster Artist", you'll know why. Mark and Lisa decide to feel each other up again... during the party!!! And surprise! They're caught, by a random character who we do not know, nor does the screenplay allow us to get into detail about him, he's just some guy that finds out about Mark and Lisa's affair behind Johnny's back.

Johnny does find out about this affair, and is very angry about it. The thing is; Wiseau tries to position his audience to make us care and feel sorry for him...I don't care...nor do I feel sorry for him. His acting is so over-the-top sometimes, and laughable, you are fully aware that you are watching the film.

But the worst performance by far is from actress Robyn Paris, who plays Lisa's best friend, Michelle. I know a lot of people say Wiseau's acting is bad, but her acting makes Tommy Wiseau look like Daniel Day-Lewis. Seriously, she is bad.

The dialogue here is atrocious, too. "I did not hit her, it's not true, it's bulls**t, I did not hit her, I did NOT" *throws bottle in anger and notices Mark* "Oh hi, Mark". Or try..."No, I cannot talk about that now, anyway, how's your sex life?" Who asks like that?! Better yet, there's that famous "You're tearing me apart, Lisa".

'The Room' is the worst film ever made, period. It drags, there is a lot of padding, there are stories and characters that are introduced, but then are removed abruptly...and the story is generic and uninspired. God knows what was going through Tommy Wiseau's head when he was making this. Although, it is enjoyable, I am rating this a rare 0/10 simply because it is a film that is bad in every level...but on an entertaining level, it does get a 10/10...for all the wrong reasons.

You're tearing me apart, Tommy Wiseau.

What's so bad about this is... well... that R rating is suspicious. What's with the many football scenes though? I guess the Room is all about all these repetitive football scenes while it doesn't really pull out a story.

From this comes comedy, unwanted comedy that had me in stitches which is why I cannot give this film no admiration for just how appalling it really is. Cult status: Achieved but at the cost of the human race. This exists for some reason and we've all just come to peace with it. Expand

This movie is WAAAY far from good. The reason why I am giving this movie an 8, is because this movie tries so hard to be a drama, but it comes off as a melodrama, with hilariously bad acting, dialogue, and a few scenes are so memorable for being notoriously bad:

The Flower Shop Scene:

"Uh hi can I get a dozen red roses please?"
"Oh hi Johnny I didn't know it was you."
"Here you go."
"That's me."
"How much is it?"
"It'll be $18-"
"Here you go keep the change. Hi doggie."
"You're my favorite customer."
Thanks a lot bye."

And then the Rooftop Scene:

"I did not hit her it's not true. It's **** I did not hit her. I deed NAAAT...oh hi Mark!"

XD
See, with this movie, you have to see to believe how bad this movie is. I really think you should check this out.

But then Lisa walks in because to bark at everyone, which satisfies Mark. But Saujanic is having none of it and uses the speakeasy to kill Lisa, while simultaneously saying, "BUT! BUT! BUT! SPEAKEASY!!!" Then shortly afterwards, Naruto comes in and scopes Pingu, who is smoking a massive joint. But Robbie Rotten isn't having any of this either, and grabs Stephanie and Sportacus and hurls them at Denny. Deny iss deed. Jhnny rns ova tu hm nd shds a single tear. Expand

Sure, it's technically a sh*tty romantic drama, but what about the enigma of the... thing known only by his Earth name, Tommy Wiseau? What about the thousands upon thousands of folklorish tales that surround The Room's mere existence? And so few lines uttered in all of cinematic history have such unique recognition as "You are tearing me apart, Lisa!"

This, along with Troll 2, is one of the few movies that blurs the line between what's "bad" and what's "good". I can't even score the f*cking thing. Does it deserve a 0? Or a 10?

10 it is. Or 0. Or 10. 10. 10. Yep, 10.
