Verdict on Red Rooms
Red Rooms is a mystery horror following a model who gets caught up wanting to learn more about a murder trial. She starts diving into the dark web for answers and finds herself becoming involved in something far more serious.
This movie follows the disturbing connection people get for serial killers. It shows how people believe they are in love with serial killers and it takes them down dangerous paths. The trial side of the movie is interesting, as we see how the law can make things difficult even when everyone knows somebody is guilty. We get great performances with Juliette Gariépy giving us an uneasy performance as the obsessed model. The movie aims to shock and delivers in everything it sets out to provide us with.

Final Thoughts –Red Rooms is uneasy, disturbing and shocking.
