Synopsis: Using chilling and strange cinematic imagery, Black Jack's Magic Room follows Bobby to the dark side where he struggles with the weight of his own guilt. When Bobby accepts an invitation to the ominous Black Jack's Magic Room everything changes; the outside world seems a million miles away and the line between reality and delusion becomes blurred beyond distinction. As he slips deeper into his lustful and erotic fantasies seeking escape, frightening hints of the truth begin to surface. Dave might know more than he lets on, Daisy says she’s found his secret, but nobody knows what will happen when Bobby finally comes face to face with the heart shaped box!
