“What puts The Room in a class of its own is its overabundant idiocy. While you're still gasping at one of the film's moronic lines or vagrant plot knots, another one rises up to smack you in the head.” - Kurt Loder, Reason Online

“If there is a 21st-century Edward D. Wood Jr., it is probably Tommy Wiseau.” - Jason Bailey, FlavorWave

“I've seen worse." - Roger Moore, MovieNation

Johnny (Tommy Wiseau) is a successful banker who lives happily in a San Francisco townhouse with his fiancée, Lisa (Juliette Danielle). One day, inexplicably, she gets bored of him and decides to seduce Johnny's best friend, Mark (Greg Sestero). From there, nothing will be the same again.
