Few films have failed so spectacularly only to become one of the greatest audience experiences in cinema history.
When THE ROOM premiered in 2003, it was intended to launch Tommy Wiseau as Hollywood's next great writer, director and leading man. Instead, audiences were left wondering whether they'd just witnessed one of the worst films ever made. The dialogue was baffling, the performances unpredictable, the plot seemed to ignore its own rules, and almost every filmmaking decision felt gloriously wrong.
Most films disappear after a reception like that. THE ROOM did the exact opposite.
Over the past two decades, audiences around the world have transformed THE ROOM into a live, interactive event that's closer to a sporting match than a traditional trip to the cinema. Lines are shouted back at the screen, plastic spoons fly through the air, footballs appear at exactly the right moments, and complete strangers spend ninety-nine minutes laughing together at one of cinema's most extraordinary cult phenomena.
Our screening will be hosted by Mark, who'll introduce first-time guests to the traditions that have made THE ROOM a global midnight movie sensation. Every online ticket holder will receive FOMO's interactive screening guide before the event, so whether you're a seasoned regular or experiencing the film for the first time, you'll know exactly when to shout, cheer, throw spoons and join in.
Come ready to laugh, participate and experience one of the most entertaining nights you'll ever have at the cinema.
