The Backrooms movie review, Backrooms reaction clip, and spoiler discussion with Tara Erickson & Roxy Striar from The Reel Rejects. Is Backrooms scary, confusing, genius, or all of the above? Tara & Roxy break down Kane Parsons / Kane Pixels’ A24 analog horror nightmare, the liminal space horror, the yellow carpet Backrooms aesthetic, the no-clip reality concept, the unsettling ending, and why this found footage / creepypasta-inspired horror movie is one of the strangest and most original horror films of the year.
In The Backrooms, Chiwetel Ejiofor plays Clark, a man whose disappearance pulls therapist Mary, played by Renate Reinsve, into a mysterious dimension beyond reality. Ejiofor is known for 12 Years a Slave, Doctor Strange, Children of Men, and The Lion King, while Reinsve is known for The Worst Person in the World, Presumed Innocent, and A Different Man. The film also features Mark Duplass, known for Creep, The Morning Show, Safety Not Guaranteed, and The League, along with Lukita Maxwell, Finn Bennett, and Avan Jogia.
Tara & Roxy discuss the biggest Backrooms moments, including the creepy fluorescent hallways, the endless rooms, the practical effects, the fire sequence, the Backrooms lore, the 4chan origins, the Kane Pixels YouTube series, the fly moment, the pirate Clark entity, the still life creatures, the distorted memories, Mary’s ending, Clark refusing to change, and the idea that the Backrooms are tied to trauma, nostalgia, misremembering, and the fear of being forgotten. They also compare the movie’s originality to recent YouTube-to-horror success stories like Obsession and talk about why Kane Parsons is a filmmaker to watch.
