The Black Room
In a 16th-century European town, the ruling family has been given a prophecy that, should there ever be twin boys born, the younger will murder the older; so is dismayed when twins are born to the popular baron. The older grows to be a selfish, slovenly man, who inherits the castle at his father's death and becomes ruler over the formerly happy villagers. He enjoys his power until he learns his younger brother is returning from abroad and, afraid of the prophecy, he determines to murder his sibling, hide his body in the "black room" - an old torture chamber sealed away behind the fireplace - and then impersonate him, right down to his withered arm. In this way he hopes to not only avoid the prophecy, but also escape consequences of his other criminal deeds and obtain marriage to a local girl of the nobility...

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

5/23/18. Sadly, this could have been so much better. While it was atmospheric, the cinematography was awful. The lighting was dark most of the time and I couldn't see what was going on. The stories don't mesh too well, and each story seemed a bit unfinished, and bringing elements together at the end didn't bring them to any conclusion.

Well filmed, in fact, spectacular at times, and for the most part very well acted, but one ponders a single question at the finish, WTF? Make that two questions: why was this film made? If there was a point, it must reside on the top of my head.

John C. Reilly was an exceptionally horrible acting choice and his accent (or rather, lack of) made my hopes for this film go from a 5 to a 0.

This is a movie nobody asked for, and nobody should watch. If you watch it though... fast forwarding and watch parts that look interesting to you. That'd be the only way to get enjoyment out of it. There's no real story! Fast forward and make your own up... I garentee it'd be better.
