A Room to Die For (2017)

Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.

Good , But It Is Overrated By Some

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

This is a really solid horror, with plenty of suspense, interesting character moments and some really brilliant acting. It's well shot, the scenario builds slowly and it's very creepy from the start. As the story progresses it becomes downright disturbing and throughout the harrowing third act I was on the edge of my seat. Recommend!

A young couple is held tied up in the basement of some people of German descent. How they got there is told as a flashback as we see Mark Crowe (Michael Lieber) the world's worst stand-up comedian and girlfriend Jill (Loren Peta) rent a room from Henry (Christopher Craig) and Josephine (Antonia Davies) who are eccentric in their ways. Strange things go on in the house that would allow anyone familiar with the genre to know exactly what is going on. And since we already know they wind up in the basement, the film supplies its own plot spoiler.The characters were irritating by design, even our protagonist Jill, wasn't a joy either. Knowing what happens kills the film. The whole thing with the baby crying was a dead give away.Guide: F-word, sex, rape.

In London, the aspiring stand-up performer Mark Crowe (Michael Lieber) is financially supported by girlfriend Jill Scott (Loren Peta) that works in a call center. They find a room that they can afford rent in the isolated house of the old couple Henry Baker (Christopher Craig) and Josephine Baker (Antonia Davies). Mark stays in the room expecting to write gags while Jill works but he is disturbed by the noise of the Baker's baby or by Henry. Soon there is a friction between Mark and Henry, but Jill convinces her boyfriend to stay in the place. Jill's snobbish brother Jason Scott (Ben Ellis) offers a job to Markr but he feels offended. One day, Mark snoops around in the house and discloses a creepy secret about Henry and Josephine Baker with tragic consequences."A Room to Die For" is a disturbing and underrated low-budget horror film with a non-chronological screenplay that gives a smart open interpretation for Jill's last scene. Loren Peta is amazing in the role of a young woman that loves her boyfriend and has a terrible fate. The veteran Christopher Craig has also great performance in the role of a creepy character. The film is graphic and not recommended for sensitive viewers. My vote is six.Title (Brazil): Not Available

A bit slow to start with and not overly captivating until short exposures into what is to come, flash, they keep you interested and the last half an hour is horribly good.. This film went from what seemed like it might be a monotone drab, expectedly boring film to a thriller/horror with a few rather disturbing scenes, that old man is probably going to be in my worst nightmares, I do feel disturbed for life after watching this, and psychological thrillers are my favourite genre, so.... A satisfying end, exposing how vastly different Jill was, to who she was when they first moved in with the older couple. The old man is an actor I would like to see more of, IF I can get past the hauntings of this film, he is a great actor. The main girl Jill, is really good too, she is very believable, the rest just do their jobs.This has the squirm factor that may trigger some people, not for a family sit down!
