Review - BACKROOMS (2026) #backrooms

  / moviebob1   https://ko-fi.com/moviebob0168 (RE-UPLOAD FOR COPYRIGHT) The Internet's favorite horror story makes the big-screen jump and becomes another strong YouTube-to-Hollywood success story as Kane Parsons upgrades his small-screen digital original series into a serious-scale, surprisingly melancholy psychological thriller with Chiwetel Ejiofor as a strung-out furniture salesman who discovers something at once existentially-terrifying (and yet also uncomfortably familiar) in the basement of his failing store. Doesn't necessarily reinvent the "What if a weird thing happened?" wheel or solve the "Why don't they just NOT do that?" scary-movie problem, but delivers very solid spooky-story vibes with a fresh, surreal aesthetic. #backroomsmovie #a24 #backrooms
