The official “Room 401″ website is up on MTV.com, you can access it here. We find out a few details, chief among them that each episode will contain four hidden camera stunts. Also, we get that pretty little logo (pictured at the top, obvs). Here’s the show’s trailer:

Alright, who’s the random guy acting as host?? (It’s actor Jared Padalecki, but still). Isn’t Ashton Kutcher supposed to host this show? Where’s Ashton? Is he hiding in room 401?

“Room 401″ premieres July 17 at 10 pm.

Ashton Kutcher Lands New Show on MTV

Wednesday, July 11th, 2007

ashton.jpg“Room 401,” a new hidden camera show from MTV, will attempt to scare unwitting show participants by using movie-like special effects. These effects are based on actual movie scenarios, so expect to see Hollywood gore, evil monsters, and maybe even a terror threat or two. Here’s what the report had to say:

“In this age of CGI and edit room after effects, Room 401 unfolds live. We don’t manipulate the film… we manipulate the mind,” said the network in a statement.

Ashton Kutcher was barely tolerable in “Punk’d,” even though the show itself was hilarious. Hopefully he can become aware of his faults (read: lose the trucker hat) and make “Room 401″ a hit.
