Reminiscent of Quentin Tarantino’s Four Rooms, HBO is unlocked “Room 104” on Friday, July 28th, which is an anthology of tales that all occur in the same room. It hails from the Duplass brothers who helmed the fan-favorite V/H/S-inspired Creep, not to mention the hilarious Baghead.
While each episode is from a different genre, the first is straight up horror. Bloody Disgusting was able to get two images from “Ralphie,” which put a babysitter through a night from hell.
Things go horribly awry when a babysitter (Melonie Diaz) arrives at Room 104 to watch an unusual boy named Ralph (Ethan Kent). Ross Partridge also stars.
In the episode, Ralph claims to be keeping his insane twin brother at bay in the hotel room’s bathroom. Is he real? The episode is pretty fucked up and launches the series out of the gate like a canon.
Written by Mark Duplass, the episode was directed by Sarah Adina Smith.
Watch the trailer for a peek at the entire first season.
