One of the defining pieces of internet horror folklore of the last decade, BACKROOMS sees viral creator Kane Parsons expand his hugely influential found-footage nightmare into a feature film for A24 and producer James Wan, starring Renate Reinsve, Chiwetel Ejiofor and Mark Duplass.

When a therapist’s patient vanishes through a mysterious doorway hidden beneath a furniture showroom, she follows him into an impossible dimension beyond reality. Endless yellow corridors stretch in every direction, spaces feel eerily abandoned, and the rules of the world begin to collapse. As she searches for answers, the deeper she ventures into the Backrooms, the more uncertain the nature of the threat becomes…

What makes BACKROOMS so unsettling is the precision with which it captures the atmosphere of Parsons’ original work: quiet, empty spaces charged with dread, nostalgia and strange fascination.
