Reviews for The Killing Room
Brutal, daring and utterly unpedictable - three qualities quite rare in movies these days.
Unremittingly gripping and unnerving, The Killing Room transforms a simple premise into an almost unbearably tense experience.
One feels a sense of gratitude when a horror-thriller even bothers with unexpected divergences or surprises that feel relatively satisfying.
