Mega64 Movie Club: Backrooms
Okay, we all know how old the person was who made this—but how was the movie itself? Did it leave Shawn and Rocco scared, bored, or maybe even a little sad? Join us as we follow the light through the wall and venture into the Backrooms.

I agree on the aspect of wishing that it went more full abstract like the shorts. Part of me wonders if having a separate screenwriter was a compromise to make it more 'grounded' for general audiences. From what I understand Kane holds all of the series lore and consulted on the script but the screenplay is by Will Soodik.
You guys should watch John Carpenter's The Fog. It being an atmospheric ghost story feels like the kind of thing Shawn would love.
So happy they reviewed this one - thank you!
Real horror freaks are more than sated by Weapons and Backrooms.
I loved the backrooms, and i love how much there is to talk about in it. For example how it might allude to AI. I watched the two Twilight Zone episodes and Wordplay, the episode Shawn said was not scary was the scariest imo because that can actually happen to stroke victims.
Shouts out Love Actually
Incredible these reviewers are only in their 40’s!
Man, based on this review, I think these guys would really like the original Kane Pixels youtube video series. More of what they wanted from the movie. Edit: I finished the review. Rocco did watch them 👍
i was so hyped for this episode, loved it!
