The Room (2003) is without exaggeration the worst movie ever made. It’s so bad that you can’t even enjoy it ironically. Someone else made a much better movie (The Disaster Artist) about how The Room ever got made in the first place. Because that will be the first question on your mind after watching it.
Hbomberguy made a great argument (in the middle of a video about CTRL+ALT+DELETE, weirdly enough) for one reason to… find value in The Room. Not like it necessarily, but maybe come away from it having learned something. The Room is almost definitely a twisted reproduction of a real relationship that Tommy Wiseau actually had, and therefore you can watch the movie from the angle of “how terrible people like Tommy Wiseau twist the stories of past relationships to fit their narrative”. Of course, you also have to parse through Tommy’s absolute insanity to get to the message he’s accidentally making about himself, but still.

And yet, there are entire crowds of spoon-throwing and football-tossing fans who gather at showings of the film regularly.
It’s not the first bad movie to attain cult status. It’s just the worst.
I’ve seen it about 10 times. It keeps getting worse, lol.
