The experience my boyfriend and I had leaving the movie theater and not finding the exit sign was far more unsettling than this film. Before going to see it, I took the time to search for the original 4chan post, read about it on Reddit, and even watched Kane Parsons YouTube series. Still, the movie didn't scratch the itch I expected it to. Backrooms is a nothing burger of a film that doesn't really go anywhere and relies solely on the odd…

It’s very funny that people were trying to act like there is no way a 19 year old could have directed this movie when it is essentially a big budget student film.

While it creates incredible atmosphere and tension I have to admit I didn’t understand it. Due to my lack of understanding that undercuts any of the positive aspects. Would Not Recommend

I was not familiar with the concept of backrooms and i don't know how close it is to the source material, but I had a great time watching this movie, it was interesting, mysterious, tense and kept me invested and wanting more, so solid mystery movie for me. As for the horror parts, I wouldn't call it horror if I am being honest.

It's like the script was written by an AI, in the beginning the writer used the best model, in the middle money and schedule were tight and tokens kept running out so he used a weaker less expensive model, and in the end fuck It let's just use the free tier. Soke movies exist to show us there…

O horror de Backrooms surge exatamente do desconhecido, não entender o que é aquele ambiente de salas vazias completamente aleatórias é o que constitui sua essência. O filme não fornece respostas ao espectador, apenas o intriga a descobrir esse misterioso universo, e talvez esse seja um ponto mal trabalhado da produção. Apesar disso, para o primeiro filme, eu senti que cumpriu bem seu papél e trouxe o terror de Backrooms para o cinema de uma…
