The shocking climax of this tale of deceit perversion and murder reveals that darker side of the human psyche.Special Features:Newly digitally remastered version from the theatrical edit with enhanced 5.1Commentary from director Martin DonovanCommentary with Writer/Producer David Koepp and Steven Soderbergh fellow Sundance Director on independent film in the 1980 sSystem Requirements:Run Time: 124 mins Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: HORROR Rating: R UPC: 013137210396 Manufacturer No: DV72103 Amazon.com: A tense psychological thriller, Apartment Zero concerns the intertwining of a loner, film buff Colin Firth (The English Patient) and his new mysterious boarder (Hart Bochner) in present-day Argentina. The new roommate is enigmatic and outgoing, befriending everyone that the poor loner could not. But Firth soon suspects a connection between his boarder's appearance and the reports of bodies in the streets murdered for political reasons. The heart of the film lies in the increasingly bizarre relationship that develops between the two opposites, breeding the seeds of mistrust. An original and offbeat noir-type drama, the film, cowritten by David Koepp (Jurassic Park), proceeds at a slow and deliberate pace, gradually drawing the viewer deeper into the intrigue and isolation of Firth's tortured soul. Some genuinely creepy moments and an all-around macabre mystery make this film worthwhile viewing for mystery fans everywhere. --Robert Lane Average Rating:
 Rating:  - APT.0: The movie is 2 stars,but the DVD commentaries make up for the films shortcomings;PLEASE READ ONI finished watching Martin Donovan's 1988 psychological thriller APARTMENT ZERO with one of my favorite actors,Colin Firth,and scratched my head at the conclusion, then got something to eat saying "What did I just see?".This film had crept into me,even though I truly thought it to be one of the worst I had ever seen.I just couldn't understand the bizarre screenplay, the odd assortment of actors and any of the plot;yet I was totally unsatisfied not to understand what was going on in writer/director ... Read More Rating: - When independent films were independent . . .The best thing about this DVD is the commentary by co-writer David Koepp and "special guest" Steven Soderbergh, whose landmark "Sex, Lies and Videotape" dates from the same time period (the late 1980s). The two of them use "Apartment Zero" as a reference point while they discuss the making of movies in general - from writing vs. directing to the most interesting way to present the discovery of a body. Koepp recalls his working relationship with writer/director Martin Donovan and describes the evolution ... Read More Rating: - On Assuming Another IdentityApartment Zero I went to go and see this movie by myself when I had first moved to Los Angeles, California and didn't have any friends. It is a film about how we become those that we love and assume in great part their identities. It is an excellent and very visual movie, taking place in Buenos Aires. It certainly left me moved in the least and understanding just how true the theme really is having gone through something similar myself. Rating:  - ARE YOU KIDDING ME!Ok the other night I watched this movie with a friend, after viewing what I would say was the WORST 2 hours of my life I decided to come on here and see what other awful things people were saying.
