I thoroughly enjoyed it.

The story was simple, but the atmosphere was extremely well done.

Markiplier’s acting was good and the overall directing and photography was pretty well done.

I will be honest, despite the difference in rating scores, I enjoyed it FAR more than I did The Backrooms, although the latter has received far more praise.

I almost fell asleep in The Backrooms.

Probably not the best comparison being somewhat different types of horror, but with those being the two most recent horror movies that have come out, I think it works to compare.

There were some moments where it was dragging a bit, particularly the “searching via map” scenes, but I never felt bored.

I never played the game it was based off of, but the xray camera is such a unique design. Having to get up from the driver’s seat to see where you are going was interesting, especially when the view is such a rudimentary radiograph.

Overall, I would probably watch it again.

7.5/10

Scruffy, I expected better from you. You know better than not put what platform you saw the movie on.

You can rent it on YouTube.

I wish I could have seen it in theaters. Would probably have been great.

Saw Backrooms in theaters.

Funny how all of these films made by YouTubers have done exceptionally well at the box office except for Chrus Stuckmann ‘s movie lol

Backrooms was such a failure to me

Endless possibilities and just a wet fart

Iron Lung was much better

I completely agree about Backrooms.

It just fell flat.
