Green Room is marketed as a violent thriller, gory horror movie. It is actually a violent thriller, gory horror movie. It delivers.
There is lots of blood, lots of violence, lots of aggression. There are plenty of thrills, many tense moments. It has a good cast, some dark humour and a loud indie/punk soundtrack.
It has Anton Yelchin as Pat, a guitarist in a punk rock band who witnesses a death. It has Imogen Poots as Amber, who turns out to be very handy with a knife and not at all squeamish about using it. It has Patrick Stewart as Darcy, a white supremacist with a small army of thugs and attack dogs at his disposal. He is brilliantly menacing and when he says near the start of the film “Let’s be clear. It won’t end well” you truly believe him.
Slash horror movies are not usually the type of film that I choose to watch, but a good movie is a good movie and this is well written, well directed and well acted.
In short, it is an excellent example of its genre. If you like violent thriller, gory horror movies you will enjoy this.

Have you seen the movie “the contact”? A 1997 sci-fi movie starring Mathew McConaughey and Jodie foster. I watched it recently and really liked it. It’s similar to interstellar; here they build a space module that creates a wormhole.

Great review! When I saw the trailers for Green Room I really didn’t think much of it, but every review I’ve read has been so positive. I might just have to brave it this Halloween 🙂

Thank you. As long as you know it is a slash/horror flick and you can deal with that, I recommend it. It is a very good slash/horror movie. Halloween will be the perfect time!
