Cult disasterpiece The Room is celebrating its 20th anniversary as the most infamous modern American melodrama this week, and suffice to say we were ready for the occasion at Paste, writing not just one but two different tributes to the effects that Tommy Wiseau’s epic passion project has had on both the concept of “bad movies” and our own enjoyment of off-the-wall cinema. We should have known, though, that we would hardly be the only ones commemorating the occasion–The Room star Greg Sestero was waiting in the wings with his own bombshell. The actor is taking to the director’s chair for an upcoming alien abduction thriller called Forbidden Sky, and as it turns out, the sci-fi project has just passed its $200,000 Kickstarter funding goal. So rest assured, it seems we will definitely get to see how Sestero handles an ambitious-sounding genre project.
