GREEN ROOM

(2015) 95 Minutes, Rated R
A.C.'s Review:  Playing in almost no theaters (if you don’t live in a major metropolitan area forget about finding this) is the  horror/thriller the Green Room.

Somewhere along the Oregon coast we find a grunge band touring at some pretty questionable dive bars. Unfortunately for them they wind up in one that is sitting literally on top of a heroin operation. After their show they are just about to leave but one member has left their cell phone charging in The Green Room (where you wait before you act goes on). Walking in to retrieve it they find members of the club have just murdered someone who is bleeding out on the floor,. Quickly they manage to barricade themselves in the Green Room giving them temporary safety. However it’s a double edged sword. There is no way out. They pry open the floor and discover the heroin operation but there is no way out from that lab either. Now the band along with the female friend of the murder victim must find some way to survive.
          
Not an easy task when the murderous owner/drug dealer of the club played by Star Trek’s Captain Picard…Patrick Stewart is hell bent on murdering them and he uses everything at his disposal from vicious attack dogs to his goon squad. Who if anyone will survive?
          
It’s a tense little thriller with no big names other than Stewart but it is definitely worth checking out if you can find it.

Best Scene: Their first escape attempt and their run in with the dogs.

A.C.'s Rating: Full Price
