Director and co-writer Johnnard Harper has made more than twenty movies in a short time. Working with writer Anthony Leone, he’s made a perfect Tubi Original: cheap, outrageous and quick. 

We meet April (Kennedy Williams) and Derek (Joseph Mason), a couple deep in the struggle. They’re trying to make it, but the rent is due, and the bank account is screaming. Their solution? Get a roommate.

What follows is a parade of human wreckage that feels like a fever dream. Every interviewee is either legally insane, looking for a three-way, or both. It’s a montage of desperation that captures the true horror of the modern gig economy. There’s one moment when they meet a potential roommate, Jason, who is a stripper and an OnlyFans creator named Donald Trunk. This scene is incredible because it’s a one-take wonder, as at least two of the actors are visible breaking throughout. No notes.

Eventually, they settle on Megan (Mikiya Scottia). She’s polite, she’s clean, she’s perfect. Of course, because we’ve seen the first five minutes of the movie, we know Megan has already stacked a few bodies. We’re in on the joke; the roommates are the punchline.

This being a Tubi Original, there’s a late-in-the-film twist you’d never see coming, and because I said that, you can see it coming. But you still won’t see it coming. I apologize if this makes no sense, unless you are a watcher of numerous Tubi Originals and then, well, you get it.

You can watch this on Tubi.
