When lovers Kate (Kate Bosworth) and Mikey (Emile Hissir) first enter the Chamber of Immaculate Conception, they see potential in its emptiness. All they have to do is let him spend 50 days in this space. The space is named after a mysterious scientist who spearheads the challenge, which will award you $5 million.
A rational viewer would automatically see the nightmarish possibilities of the Immaculate Room. Kate and Mikey didn’t sign up for vacation and volunteered as lab rats. Written and directed by Mukunda Michael Dewill, Immaculate Chamber is similarly unwilling to embrace its darkest depths. As a result, it has a moral ending as simple and bland as the title room.
Kate and Mikey are giving their relationship a new chance and seemingly decided that imprisonment together will rekindle the spark. Kate is a rule-following pragmatist from humble beginnings, and Mikey is a wealthy vegan his artist, whose bounty plan also includes smoking marijuana with Elon his mask.
The room changes lighting to simulate morning, noon and night. Provide 3 daily “meals” of a tasteless liquid labeled FOOD. And binding Kate and Mikey to some arbitrary rules. Kate just wants to play along, but Mikey becomes suspicious early on, first realizing that she thinks the clock counting down the hours is being manipulated.
This seems worth considering. After all, time is of the essence in this challenge. But much like a key aspect of Kate and Mikey’s backstory, that plot goes nowhere. The film focuses more on one character’s moral flaws than on an entire sketchy project, leading to a conclusion that feels unsatisfying at best and pompous at worst.
