Director Of Movie About Hidden Online Internet Evil Shocked That People Torrenting His Film
MONTREAL — Pascal Plante, director of psychological thriller Red Rooms, has expressed puzzlement that his film, which is centered around people who obsess over dark web live murder streams, is being illegally pirated and shared online.
"I really don't understand it," Plante said in a recent interview. "If people wanted to watch the film, they should either go to theaters or wait until it becomes available to stream online legally. This is a film about how people with a morbid fascination can use the deep, hidden parts of the internet to watch things they wouldn't see anywhere else, not to mention follow and share it with others. How could my film possibly appeal to people who use the deep, hidden parts of the internet to watch things they wouldn't see anywhere else and share it with others? It doesn't make any sense."
The film's premise and atmosphere have reportedly captured the attention of people who haunt the dark corners of the internet, with Red Rooms quickly becoming popular among online movie pirates. "I use legal means for nearly all of my movie viewing," said avid online film fan Rue Lumbroso, "but when I first heard about Red Rooms, I definitely immediately pirated it to share with other people. Why wouldn't I? It's a film about people like us. It certainly makes more sense than when I use my illegal online tools to watch The Little Mermaid."
At publishing time, Plante was still struggling to comprehend why people who hide in the dark recesses of the internet feel such a connection to a film about people who hide in the dark recesses of the internet.
