Obsessed:A Look at True Crime's Dark Side

We've all seen the endless parade of true crime documentaries and shows. From Jeffrey Dahmer to Ted Bundy, it seems like we can't get enough of these gruesome stories. But is there something more going on here? Could it be that we're not just fascinated by the crimes themselves, but by the darkness they reveal within ourselves? Red Rooms', a chilling new French-language film, takes a disturbingly direct look at this phenomenon. The movie centers on Kelly-Anne, a seemingly successful fashion model with ashockingly dark secret: she's obsessed with a real-life serial killer named Ludovic Chevalier. What's even more unsettling is that Kelly-Anne isn't alone. The courtroom where Chevalier is on trial is packed with other spectators, drawn in by the morbid spectacle. But what motivates these people? Are they just morbidly curious, or is there something deeper at play? Red Rooms' doesn't shy away from the disturbing realities of Chevalier's crimes. We hear the horrifying audio of his victims' last moments, but never see the gruesome details. This absence of violence only adds to the film's chilling effect, making us confront the disturbing power of our own imaginations. The film also explores the dark underbelly of the internet, where Kelly-Anne spends her free time delving into gambling, cryptocurrency, and even more disturbing content. Is this just a way for her to escape her own emptiness, or is she actively seeking out danger? Red Rooms' raises more questions than it answers, but that's what makes it so thought-provoking. It forces us to confront our own fascination with darkness and to consider the potential consequences of our online behavior. While the film's ending might leave you with more questions than answers, the journey is a disturbing and unforgettable one. It's a reminder that the line between observer and participant can be thin, and that our own curiosity can sometimes lead us down dangerous paths.
