Back in 2023, A24 and James Wan's Atomic Monster joined forces to adapt one of the internet's biggest horror sensations to the big screen — The Backrooms. Created by Kane Parsons, better known online as Kane Pixels, and based on a viral creepypasta, the web series blew up on YouTube with its horrifying depiction of the titular maze-like complex beyond the bounds of reality that's full of anomalies and under the microscope of a research institute trying to understand its mysteries. Nearly three years after the announcement of the feature film, production has since wrapped, and one of its stars, Mark Duplass, has a lot of praise for the young director. In an interview with Collider's Perri Nemiroff for The Creep Tapes Season 2 at Fantastic Fest, he gushed about working with Parsons and the exciting story he has planned for his theatrical debut.
