The series of horror shorts known as “Backrooms” has inspired a new horror film that arrives in Brazilian theaters with Chiwetel Ejiofor and Renate Reinsve in the cast. The film, directed by Kane Parsons, who created the series of shorts, features a plot inspired by the viral that became an internet phenomenon in 2022. The original series of shorts, which can be watched for free on The Backrooms channel on YouTube, started with a post on 4chan in 2019 that showed an image of a strange and uncomfortable environment, and soon inspired artists, writers, and filmmakers to expand the concept. The short “The Backrooms (Found Footage)”, directed by Kane Parsons, showed a young man accidentally entering the Backrooms while filming with a VHS camera, and went viral for its intense and anguished atmosphere and creative practical effects.
The new horror film, “Backrooms: A Non-Place”, premieres in Brazilian theaters this Thursday, bringing a plot that expands the universe created by Parsons. The cast, which includes Chiwetel Ejiofor and Renate Reinsve, promises to bring an exciting and intense interpretation to the story. Kane Parsons’ direction, who also created the series of shorts, ensures that the film is faithful to the spirit of the creepypasta that inspired the plot. The film’s photography promises to be one of the main attractions, with lighting that creates a gloomy and atmosphere that is claustrophobic. The themes addressed in the film include the exploration of parallel realities and the investigation of paranormal phenomena, which should keep the viewer interested and engaged.
The creation of the “Backrooms” series of shorts was a creative process that involved the expansion of a simple concept into a more complex and engaging story. The mythology created by Parsons includes secret organizations that investigate the Backrooms, portals between realities, and paranormal events, creating a rich and detailed universe. The idea that the Backrooms can be accessed by accident, and that those who enter may never leave, is a concept that intrigues and concerns the viewer, and should be explored in the new horror film.
The new horror film “Backrooms: A Non-Place” is an option for horror fans who are looking for an exciting and intense experience. With a plot inspired by the “Backrooms” series of shorts and a talented cast, the film promises to be a unique and engaging experience. Additionally, the original shorts from the series can be watched for free on The Backrooms channel on YouTube, which is a great option for those who want to get familiar with the universe before watching the film.
