As I said before

Chiwetel Ejiofor. . .I am so in.

One of my favorite actors. 2nd after Denzel Washington.

Jeremy Jahns says it gets pretty slow in spots, but enjoyed it overall.

I’m seeing this tomorrow. Tempering my expectations, just hoping they can capture that creepiness of the original shorts

Just watched it. Had some really unsettling scenes. Easily the best horror film I've seen in a long time.

Excited about this. I have the weekend off.

Going to try to catch it tomorrow in an early showing if possible.

Agreed.

I am new to the whole Backrooms stuff...not sure how I missed it but I just watched them all a couple of months ago based on threads on here about this movie. And they are really good. My main concern (that I think I mentioned on the first page since this is an older/bumped thread) is that the low-budgetness of the YT series won't translate well into 2026 cinema. I'm sure it will be fine though.

Isn't that sort of the whole point though? Seems like an odd thing to say about something like the backrooms...the slow, boring, mundane aspect of it is one of things that make it so creepy and unsettling, no?

I don't believe I will get myself to a theater to see this, but I 100% will see it once it hits streaming.
