Backrooms is a horror movie about some of the creepiest places imaginable.
The nondescript, beige-carpeted rooms that populate countless office spaces and discount furniture warehouses.
If you've ever worked in a rundown office park or shopped for a cheap mattress, the vibe will be instantly familiar.
Dingy, claustrophobic, maybe with cheerful music piped through tinny speakers
and always with the unsettling flickering hum of fluorescent lights.
That setting forms the central concept of Backrooms,
which doesn't have a plot so much as a deeply unnerving sense of place.
It's a surreal and unsettling bit of horror based on a popular YouTube series.
