Preview: The Roommate (2011)

Synopsis:

A college roommate turns into a psychotic, overprotective killer when anyone tries to interrupt her new friendship.

• Poster: C

Review:

If they wanted to have her stand out in a crowd, they should have done something a little different than to blur everyone else. It's not that attractive a poster and no one will know what it's even for.

• Trailer: C-

Review:

Even before the 1-minute mark when you become full aware you're watching a trailer for a horror film, the signs are there. Semi-creepy statement about only having one college roommate, the Screen Gems logo...and then it goes straight down the predictability road. It looks like a collegiate Single White Female.

Oscar Prospects:

None.

Release Date:

• February 4, 2011
