"Your Worst Night Out Ever" Coming To The Newtown Theatre

NEWTOWN, PA — This movie must really be bad.

In what the Newtown Theatre is billing as "Your Worst Night Out Ever," the theatre will screen 2003's "The Room," which is widely considered the worst movie ever made.

The movie is scheduled to roll at 8 p.m. on Friday, July 21 at the Newtown Theatre.

To make the experience even worse, in the hour leading up to the showing the theatre will be offering one complimentary drink (a selection of terrible beer and worse wine), a shot bar of Jägermeister or Malört, treat bags filled with the world’s worst candy (think circus peanuts, black licorice, candy corn, etc.), and free popcorn (the popcorn is pretty good…sorry).

The hour will also include some trivia with the worst prizes for the winners.

"Guests are encouraged to wear their worst date-night outfits. The most awful outfit as voted on by attendees will win a great prize (really, we swear)," said event organizers.

Rated R, “The Room” is a 2003 movie written, produced, and directed by Tommy Wiseau, who also stars as its main character, Johnny. Set in San Francisco, the movie is about an amiable banker whose seemingly perfect life is turned upside down when his deceitful fiancée embarks on an affair with his best friend.

Although the movie played for only two weeks in the summer of 2003, reportedly grossing a mere $1,900 in just two theaters, Wiseau continued to spend a reported $5,000 a week to bankroll a Hollywood billboard for the movie.

This odd and exorbitant expense was one of many examples of apparent wastefulness that would come to fascinate fans of “The Room” and help earn Wiseau a reputation as “the Orson Welles of crap.”
