It may not be the most powerful horror in the history of cinema, but the new action-packed horror film by French director Christian Wolkmann, The Room of Desires, seeks to cause anxiety and anxiety during viewing, and in some places even scare. Until the end I want to watch at least just to find out whether the heroes will be able to get out of the "labyrinth" they have created with their own hands. The release date of the mystical film "Room of Desires" in Russia is September 19, 2019, before watching it, it is better to read a couple of reviews and reviews, but the plot will definitely surprise you.

Don't tell anyone about your desires

In the story, a young married couple Kate and Matt move from New York to a quiet place in a seemingly cozy country mansion in the north of New Hampshire, which keeps a terrible secret inside its walls. But the secret of the house is not connected with mystical creatures and ghosts, everything is much more pleasant, and at first it seems that Kate and Matt are incredibly lucky. On the top floor of the mansion, the couple discover a strange secret room capable of materializing any desire of their owners, be it money, beautiful outfits, expensive alcohol, or even a living child.

There is one "But" - nothing can be taken outside the walls of the house, because any thing "filled" by the room will turn to dust. But what about a living person?

First, the newly minted parents keep their "room" son locked up, assuring them that these are just precautions, and that there is a dangerous virus outside. But the boy is not as simple as it seems. Soon he will create a whole alternative world with the help of the room, where he can walk in the forest and even make a snowman, and his parents will look for a way out of this maze.

Absurd secret room

The idea of making a film could only have come up during a stormy party, when the possibilities seem endless, and I want to prolong it as long as possible. This also happened with the director of the "Room of Desires" by the Frenchman Christian Volkmann ("Renaissance", "ZAZ: Champs Élysées", "ZAZ: Sous le ciel de Paris"). In 2017, in the mansion of his friends at a party that was a success, he came up with the very room that fulfills every whim of its tenants.

Perhaps that is why the viewer is shown scenes that do not fit into the atmosphere of horror with a party and annealing of the main characters, when they greedily enjoyed expensive alcohol, beautiful outfits and each other. Everything looked too glamorous and glossy for a movie with a pretense of "sinister haunted house."

Pleased with the acting, it is especially pleasant to watch the spectacular and beautiful in all respects Olga Kurylenko, whom viewers may know from such films as "Paris, I Love You", "Seven Psychopaths", "Oblivion". Kevin Janssens did a great job of playing a caring husband and protector, and Francis Chapman got the role of an obsessed maniac son, with which he coped with Hurray, not without the help of hand-wringing and a frightening look.

At the end of the film, an understatement is felt, because you will never find an answer to the exciting question of what this ominous room is, how long has it existed, and who is its creator. The viewer will be offered a light action and psychological thriller, but the denouement will really be unexpected. By the way, why not make the same room near the wishing room, but without strange rules and restrictions?

The release date of the film "Wishing Room" in Russia is September 19, 2019 (the trailer is available below), leave your feedback, study the reviews and the plot before you go to the cinema.
