A cult classic
When the film was released, it was quickly referred to as one of the worst films ever made, due to a number of flaws in narrative and plot. However, due to its uniqueness, the film is now a curiosity and has many fans.
Wiseau's success
Although Wiseau is by no means a particularly talented or groundbreaking director in the opinion of critics, we cannot deny him the film's incredible success.
Irony of The Disaster Artist
James Franco's film The Disaster Artist ironically made a brilliant and critically-acclaimed film inspired The Room, which has been referred to as one of the worst films in recent memory.
An Ironic admiration
Many fans of The Room enjoy the film in an ironic way. It is ironic because they don't think the film is particularly good, but they find it entertaining to watch and find faults with.
Irony of Wiseau's spending
The commonly-quoted budget of The Room is $6 million. Ironically, the film is notorious for its cheap home video-like look and does not feature any elements (such as special effects) that would normally justify this price tag.
