DrBloodmoney Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 Anyone who (like me) really liked the story and concepts in Control might want to check out this 6 part miniseries from the mid 2000s - a bit dated in the special effects now, but it’s where most of the concepts in Control (the motel in the middle of nowhere accessed from anywhere, the altered items with bizarre powers etc.) were... well... let’s charitably say... ‘inspired’ from. Actually, let’s not be charitable. Let’s just say it like it is. Control stole the whole thing from this! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

h4mx0r Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Yooo someone else who remembers this show! Yeah it's a very similar concept, too bad the series didn't get picked up. Great miniseries. Another similar show to this is Warehouse 13. A little more light-hearted than Lost Room, but very similar concept as well, and ran for multiple seasons on SyFy. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
