Per chance Nightmare Box aka Doom Room got on my screen. Like some other reviewer mentioned, the movie works rather like a stage play, as 99% percent of the movie are just playing in one room, the doom room. I watched the movie thru and it is for sure no masterpiece but a got example and study what a team who got a vision (and some technical expertise in acting, cam work, setting design) can achieve with very limited resources. Despite some flaws (especially the sounddesign is rather weak) watchable, but the format of a short movie would have been the better choice in my opinion, because the longer the movie rolls on the more it loses momentum.

Plot summary
A woman wakes up trapped inside a room with no memory of her past. As times ticks by, a bizarre mix of real and surreal characters visits her; some seeming to aid her while others torment her. Unable to escape, she must put together the pieces of a riddle to discover who she is and how she got here. But when she discovers the truth of her past, she might wish she had instead remained a prisoner to the horrors of the room. The Nightmare Box is a venture into sexual guilt through experimental horror where terror and art are combined.

Interesting enough
Doom Room (also released as Nightmare Box) is a low budget British surreal horror movie directed and co-written by Jon Keeyes starring Debbie Rochon. A girl with amnesia (Johanna Stanton) wakes up in a locked room with no exit and no recollection of how she got there. Inside this room our Jane Doe finds herself taunted and abused by her captors and a series of paranormal entities who keep her from learning who she really is. This movie is like a hybrid between a fringe play and a b-horror movie. Doom Room is a bit slow and not without flaws, but an interesting take on the captivity horror sub-genre.
Something different and pretty interesting
Anyone who gives this less than 5 and all you idiots blasting this film... really? I doubt if you have a brain cell between you. This is no big budget hollywood horror. If that's all you watch this isn't for you. But what it IS is a well written and well acted piece of art that has an above average director at its helm. To make an engaging film set in just one room is hard enough in itself but to draw good actors into the mix on a very very very small budget is even more of a talent. The subject matter is very fetishistic, playing with themes of bondage and S+M a bit too much for it not to obviously be the directors own fantasy come to life. That said it is intriguing and entertaining enough to keep you watching for 90mins to see the outcome. Just don't watch it with your mum. Passing note to all the 1,2,3,4 star idiots, you have no Buisiness reviewing movies at all. Keep your views to FB.
