 
Richard Thomas (Greg
Russell Tiderington) rents a room from
Mrs. Baker (Jacquollyne Keith). As he is
being shown the accommodations Mrs. Baker
instructs him not to go in “that
room” pointing to a closed door.
After working for a bit Richard heads
downstairs and as he is passing “the
forbidden room” he sees fingers
protruding from beneath the door.
Curiosity overrides any and all warnings.
Inside are heaped corpses…as well as
something else lurking in the shadows. It
seems Mrs. Baker has a very busy rooming
house indeed…with a rather brisk
turnover.
Intriguingly, the film
itself seems set at a slightly faster
speed than normal, giving the entire
movie an unsettling quality from the very
start. The eerie Room for Rent is
obviously the work of talented folk and
begs for MORE! An extended version of
this concept would be most worthwhile and
welcome. Well done.
It is quite crisply
lit and photographed and boasts fine
performances by the two leads.
This featurette is tightly
scripted and directed.
