How low would you go to win a million dollars? Just how desperate are you for the cash? Desperate enough to enter the Red Room?
In this latest and most vicious game show to emerge from the Japanese underground, four contestants (a husband and wife on the edge of divorce, and two sisters) are locked in the Red Room to draw cards in the king game. Whoever draws the king selects two others to enter a cage where one performs the most outrageous acts upon his or her unlucky victim.
The game is played to the death. Survivor takes all, and the losers go home in body bags!

Summary: great cover art does not = great movie
Comment: i wasn't completely sure what i thought i would get from Red Room, and sitting through the entire 68 minutes of it got me no closer to finding out. yes, it seems to hope to be a Guinea Pig film, but falls extremely short of that goal. the production value (if it's possible) is even lower than Guinea Pig. it mainly relied on sexuality to present horror, but being persistantly bombarded with it, the viewer becomes desensitized quickly. other "horror" aspects and shock items just seemed stolen from films such as Fudoh - The New Generation & Guinea Pig Devils Experiment i give it 3 stars as my reaction to it was quite neutral.

Summary: OMG!!!
Comment: THIS MOVIE IS NOT FOR EVERYONE!!!!!!!! This Japanese movie is very good, but it made my stomach sick after watching it.
Red Room is about four people locked in a room playing a card game. The one who gets the KING card gets two people, and they have to do what the person tells them to do.
This movie is not for kids. Of course, everybody knows that right?

Summary: Gorehounds beware!!!
Comment: I would have liked to give Red Room no stars at all, but unfortunately you have to give it at least 1. That's 1 more star than it deserves. I bought this DVD thinking that it would be something similar to the infamous Guinea Pig series. Boy was I wrong! Yes, they are B-movies, but while Guinea Pig delivers exatly what it promises, this movie gives you nothing that it promises.
On the front cover, it warns the viewer that this movie contains graphic violence. That could not be further from the truth. What I got most out of this movie, was almost soft-core, excruciatingly fake sounding, sex-scenes, and IMPLIED scenes of disturbing violence. That's right. Implied NOT graphic.
Now, I am a big fan of japanese movies and Unearthed Films has released other good, very gory movies, like Guinea Pig and Aftermath. However, Red Room was not worth the $14.99 I paid for it, or the 68 minutes I spent watching it. Red Room is not worth a single cent of your money, or a second of your time.
The sad thing is, Unearthed Films probably realized this, which led to their false-advertising DVD cover. For shame, Unearthed Films, for shame. You disappoint me.
If you're looking for a movie with almost soft-core, fake-sounding porn scenes, than Red Room is for you. However, if you're looking for some graphic, gory, ultra-violence, than I suggest you watch Guinea Pig: The Devil's Experiment. It took away the bad taste in my mouth that Red Room left.
