Critics Consensus

Anchored by Juliette Gariépy's superb portrayal of self-destructive obsession, Red Rooms is a haunting and timely trip down a particularly morbid rabbit hole.

New York Magazine/Vulture

This picture about people obsessed with criminals and their grisly crimes confronts us with the mystery of who the obsessives truly are.

I have to warn that you may need to be a little twisted to love this film... Definitely the most tense I've felt in a long time. I can't recommend it high enough.

Variety

The coolly controlled film unsettles with a kind of diseased psychological atmosphere -- hewing not from the mindset of the accused so much as the parasitical sickness that makes spectators obsess over his kind.

InSession Film

Pascal Plante’s film is violent, sadistic, and gritty without showing a hint of violence. It leaves one feeling dirty, ashamed, and slightly baffled at the connivance in the heinous, internet-exploited crimes.

Rated: A+

...designed to be a cult film, but in a way that invites you to think deeply about all its implications, its ideas, its decisions. [Full review in Spanish]

The oblique courtroom thriller offers chilling reflections on the rise of obsessive true crime fan culture.

Mr. Hollywood

An effective thriller. Not much happens but it happens in an interesting way. Good cinematography, acting and pace. Will be disturbing but its worth the watch

A compelling. well-told story about true crime obsession, even one apparently well-intentioned. Well cast, well acted, well written.

For a movie of the "dark side of humanity" genre this was a good one. I'd like to think the best of the main characters intentions at the end.

Really incredible movie. One that holds your interest the entire time and as the story winds down, it is completely unpredictable. Very little is revealed about the main character so you have no idea what she'll do next. I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. Not every question gets answered by the end but you'll be thinking about it for a while.

Meh... not bad I guess but not great either. It's such a shame as they could've used this as a real opportunity to dive a little bit deeper into the characters, storyline and just exactly how victims end up in these places on the dark web. The storyline is interesting, a successful model by day who becomes obsessed with a serial killer and by night is an intelligent internet hacker, surfing the dark web desperate to expose the serial killer and the truth. But there was no substance to it, it was a slow burn, almost boring. It would've been interesting to see HOW she found the websites and raise awareness about these horrible websites and human trafficking etc. But it was very bland with a few intense/interesting parts. All in all, a great opportunity lost 👎🏻 Please leave crime dramas/thrillers in the hands of the Scandinavians, they do it best.

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars
