INSIDE THE TWILIGHTROOM
ABOUT US
The Home for Independent Film & TV Reviews
We bring artistry, variety, analysis, and authority to our coverage–from new releases, Festival coverage, and anime to Criterion Tuesday, Throwback Thursday, and Award season highlights–we shine a light on the creativity and craft that makes screen stories stick with us. Every week, new articles and reviews, as well as some dependable favorites will keep you coming back to the TwilightRoom.
Sharing reviews with your friends and other fans will help us to grow our audience. We’re looking forward to establishing TwilightRoom as a place where independent voices can share what they see, and help you see it a little differently, too.

Twilight Room Rating System
TwilightRoom’s rating system uses a simple scale that starts at 100. Because it takes partnership, creativity, and a large team of contributors to make a film or show, each project begins with a foundation of baseline points. As a result, ratings between 50 and 100 are far more common. Think of 100 as reflecting everything the film or show offers–from the dialogue to that immediate, out-of-the-theater emotional reaction.
"No form of art goes beyond ordinary consciousness as film does, straight to our emotions, deep into the twilight room of the soul"
Ingmar Bergman
