Backrooms (2026)

Backrooms (2026) is a horror film. A doorway inside a furniture showroom opens onto a vast maze of unsettling rooms. The familiar surfaces of an ordinary commercial space give way to an environment whose scale and rules resist explanation.

Cast and filmmakers

Directed by Kane Parsons. The featured cast includes Chiwetel Ejiofor, Renate Reinsve, Lukita Maxwell, Finn Bennett.

Story, context and what to watch first

This is Kane Parsons’ feature film, distinct from his online Backrooms videos and the wider internet fiction that inspired the setting. Choose it for disorientation, enclosed spaces and architectural dread. Familiarity with the online mythology is useful context, rather than a substitute for the feature itself.

The space is part of the threat

A furniture showroom is an ordinary place to begin, which makes the doorway’s impossible destination more disturbing. The film’s appeal rests on the contrast between recognisable rooms and an environment that no longer behaves like a building people can navigate. It is a useful choice for viewers drawn to liminal-space horror and unsettling architecture.
