Backrooms

The latest A24 horror sensation from young YouTube creator Kane Parsons, inspired by the legendary creepypasta about an endless maze of empty rooms.

When an unlucky furniture salesman named Clark discovers a hidden portal beneath his store, he finds himself trapped in an infinite labyrinth of yellow corridors and abandoned rooms. The deeper he ventures, the more reality itself begins to unravel.

The original internet post that inspired the film read:

> "If you're not careful and you noclip out of reality in the wrong areas, you'll end up in the Backrooms, where there's nothing but the stink of old moist carpet, the madness of endless fluorescent lights, and roughly six hundred million square miles of randomly segmented empty rooms. God save you if you hear something wandering nearby. Because it sure as hell has heard you."

🥨 Discussion led by clinical psychologist, psychoanalyst, and psychology lecturer Irina Kozlova.
