The Disappointments Room is a 2016 American psychological horror film directed by D. J. Caruso, written by Caruso from a script by Wentworth Miller, and starring Kate Beckinsale and Mel Raido as a couple in a new house that contains a hidden room with a dark, haunted past.

Plot
Dana (Kate Beckinsale), her husband David and their 5-year-old son Lucas start a new life after moving from the hustle and bustle of Brooklyn, N.Y., to a stately old manor in the quiet countryside. After settling in, Dana starts to experience terrifying visions and dreams that she cannot explain. The mystery grows when she stumbles upon a secret room in the attic. After finding the key and unlocking the door, Dana discovers the dark history of the family that lived there in the 19th century.

Why It Sucks

 * 1) It's not too scary.
 * 2) Terrible acting from Geyer Kosinski, and the other casts.
 * 3) Poor story.
 * 4) There is a geography error that the house is supposed to be in North Carolina. The obituary refers to the MK&T (Missouri, Kansas, and Texas) Railroad and the Pecan Bridge, also located in Texas.
 * 5) On this poster, the picture shows on a door key that looks like a character from the movie The Ring.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) The soundtrack that was composed by Brian Tyler is pretty good, even if it's not too scary.

Reception
The film was panned by critics and audiences alike. It has a 0% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, based on 25 reviews, with an average score of 3/10. The critics' consensus reads: "The Disappointments Room lives down to its title with a thrill-free thriller that presumably left its stars filled with regret - and threatens to do the same for audiences." Metacritic scores a film a 31/100 based on 7 critics, indicating "generally unfavorable reviews". Because of the badly received reception and the failure at the box-office, 20th Century Fox was forced to cancel the Blu-ray release of the film. It was only released on standard DVD. Roadshow Entertainment released a region B locked Blu-ray in Australia on March 8, 2017.
