- A24s Backrooms the film has a new teaser trailer
- The film will be in theaters on May 29
- Backrooms is based on the Creepypasta of the same name, focusing on strange, liminal spaces
Backrooms is the next A24 horror film to join the production company’s impressive repertoire, and I’m already excited about how good it looks. A short teaser trailer has been released ahead of the May 29 release.
There are plenty of exciting new movies coming this year, and among them are some fantastic horror offerings. I was recently blown away by Neon’s first trailer for Finish 8which sees a man trapped in a subway station mirroring the liminal horror Backrooms.
I’m very excited to see more of this exciting horror universe explored, especially since Kane Parsons is directing and I’m already a big fan of his Backrooms web series.
Check out the creepy teaser for Backrooms under.

A24’s new film has perfectly captured the eerie atmosphere of The Backrooms
If you spend a lot of time reading weird, creepy internet stories like I do, you’ll know how significant “The Backrooms” concept is. It has spawned lots of threads, podcasts and even video games, my favorite being the horror simulator POOLS.
For me, it’s the uncertainty of The Backrooms that makes it so compelling. You never quite know what’s around the corner or what might follow you as you try to navigate these liminal spaces. They can be seemingly ordinary things like office blocks or shopping malls, but abandoned and not quite right. The idea with them is that you have cut out of reality into a strange dimension that feels like our reality but is anything but.
Right now we know it follows a therapist’s patient who disappears into a dimension and stars Doctor Strange Actor Chiwetel Ejiofor alongside Mark Duplass, known for his work on the horror found footage Creep.
The mundane has never been so terrifying, and our first look at Backrooms has made me feel really optimistic about the upcoming film. I just hope it lives up to the hype.
