Harockerce What a beautiful movie!
Titreenp SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?
SteinMo What a freaking movie. So many twists and turns. Absolutely intense from start to finish.
Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
Leofwine_draca THE ROOMMATE is another very low budget slice of Japanese horror from director Hisaaki Nagaoka, a man responsible for a whole slew of shot-on-video madness including the likes of SCREAM GIRLS and JU-ON CAR. This one is typically stilted and occasionally nonsensical, although it's also better than some of the director's other works. It's not quite as one-note and obviously derivative as SCREAM GIRLS.The plot has you scratching your head more often than not and sees this playing out as more of a psychological thriller more than anything else. The main girl is haunted by a series of grisly murders and begins to suspect that her otherwise friendly roommate may be responsible; it just goes from there. Everything is explained at the climax and it's rather unbelievable, while the horror content is low despite attempts at an ominous sense of foreboding and general creepiness.
