It is known that director D.J. Caruso collaborated with writer Wentworth Miller to create The Disappointments Room, based on a true story. Some of the events occurring with the film’s main characters are drawn from the experience of a “living witness” in the story. This serves as an inspiration for Wentworth Miller to continue his screenwriting career after the success of Stoker (2013), a horror-thriller that he penned which was directed by the legendary Park Chan-wook. The Disappointments Room is filled with numerous elements that will make you hesitate to watch it again, especially during this Halloween season filled with fright.
