A withdrawn Beunos Aries movie buff develops an unusually charged relationship with his new roommate in this off-beat psychological thriller. Reclusive and demanding, movie theater owner Adrian LeDuc is none too happy when circumstances force him to share his apartment. His outlook begins to shift, however, when he meets Jack Carney, a confident charmer with movie star looks. Adrian is both strangely attracted to and resentful of Jack, and the two form a sometimes awkward, often unspoken bond.

It pretends to be a psychological-political melodrama but plays like the work of a dilettante; that is, the work of someone who wants to make movies, has the means to make them, but doesn't, as yet, know what he wants to make them about.
A minor skid for Donovan is sure-driving for too many others.
It gets your attention, makes you laugh and passes the time for a while.
Stylish and intriguing mystery tale made on a low budget
It remains intriguing even when it sort of derails in the final reel.
Maybe it's no surprise that the decade in which AIDS reared its ugly head produced an astonishing number of films concerning dangerously repressed homosexual protagonists.
Donovan's bizarre, riveting thriller surely belongs on any list of the best "movies you've never heard of."
A victory of style over substance, with crisp direction and a pair of remarkable performances carefully obscuring a very shaky screenplay.
Part psychological drama, part serial killer mystery and part black comedy, [it] isn't for the casual viewer; but if you like your horror on the peculiar side you'll gladly open the door to Apartment Zero.
Apartment Zero is a psychological drama that is part black comedy and part erotic thriller.
odd but with excellent performances by two fine actors.

This is a neat little flick that you'd be hard-pressed to find anywhere else but Flixster. A big treat for Colin Firth fans, where he plays his usual affected, stuffy British self until a delightful little turn in the last half hour or so. The plot is original and inventive, though it gets sidetracked way too easily
