The Lost Room,” a thrilling mini-series event that previously aired on the SCI FI Channel on December 11, 2006, features an all-star cast including Peter Krause, Julianna Margulies, Margaret Cho, Roger Bart and Kevin Pollak.
The story follows a detective as he investigates a mysterious motel room, which acts as a portal to an alternate universe. In the 1960s, an unknown event at the Sunshine Motel caused ordinary things in Room 10 to transform into items of wonder. The room and its contents gained unique and inexplicable properties, transforming them from mundane things into indestructible objects with extraordinary powers. These objects are sought after by anyone who knows their secrets.

I quite liked Lost Room. It was a very intruiging concept that was well executed, and I hope that it does eventually go to series.
This is one of few times the SCIFI channel did a movie or mini-series worth watching.
