What is the movie The Profane Exhibit about?

Deep within the underbelly of Paris, there is a club which is the home of a secret, wicked society. At first it resembles an ordinary fetish or Goth nightclub, but within the cavernous building are many hidden rooms, one of which is known as “The Room of Souls,” a private gathering place of the world’s richest and most evil people.

Their host is the elegant yet frightening Madame Sabatier. For their amusement each member takes a turn and spins a true tale of depravity.

this to the annals of horror history is truly commendable.”

REVIEW OVERVIEW

unleashing-the-profane-exhibit-blu-ray-dvd-release-september-24The ten-year wait for The Profane Exhibit is over, but it's a mixed bag. While there are brief moments of near brilliance, much of the film is average. Most directors don't showcase their best or most extreme work, making it fall short of the hype. Two segments stand out for their watchable storylines and three for their unique viewer experience. Overall, it's better than expected but still nothing special - likely appealing only to a select audience.
