It’s very funny that people were trying to act like there is no way a 19 year old could have directed this movie when it is essentially a big budget student film.

i liked how it referenced source material but it felt more like found footage, rather than an actual story

While it creates incredible atmosphere and tension I have to admit I didn’t understand it. Due to my lack of understanding that undercuts any of the positive aspects. Would Not Recommend

I was not familiar with the concept of backrooms and i don't know how close it is to the source material, but I had a great time watching this movie, it was interesting, mysterious, tense and kept me invested and wanting more, so solid mystery movie for me. As for the horror parts, I wouldn't call it horror if I am being honest.

Beautifully shot, amazing sound design and score. There are some great moments and Parsons does a great job building tension but the payoff isn't quite there. The story is a bit thin, and I would have loved to see a bit more expansion on some of the themes and emotional points of the film. Overall though, a good movie, and great performances from Chiwetel Ejiofor and Renate Reinsve. Really looking forward to what Kane Parsons does next.
