Box Room

Skip it. 'Box Room' sounds like it's desperately trying to be provocative body horror with a lonely-teen angle, but the concept—a bedroom wall creature as a sexual awakening metaphor—lands more as exploitative shock value than genuine sci-fi drama. Without critical backing or a strong reputation to vouch for its execution, this is a hard pass.

Plot

Jerry is a strange and solitary boy who lives with his young neglectful mother in a run down apartment. He spends his weekends hidden away in his bedroom making model figurines and watching TV alone. While investigating a damp stain on his bedroom wall, Jerry peels off some wallpaper, revealing a seductive alien orifice growing behind the plaster. After spending an ever increasing amount of time in his bedroom exploring and inspecting the alien creature, Jerry embarks on his first sexual experience. After numerous encounters between Jerry and the creature, it becomes pregnant. Filled with panic and guilt, Jerry attempts to abort the alien creature, leading to a horrific outcome which neither himself nor his mother will ever forget.
