Backrooms: A Divided Spoiler Review
from The Spook House Podcast Hosted by The Spook House Podcast
Wrapping up the stacked horror movie month of May, it's time to review BACKROOMS, the feature film from young director Kane Parsons. This movie has created a lot of buzz in the horror world, with some calling it an evolution in filimmaking and others calling it boring and pointless. No matter what your opinion is we got you covered! I'm joined by my friend Lexi yet again and she brings some harsh criticisms of the film with her. Can we meet in the middle on Backrooms or be doomed to wander the liminal hellscape of movie criticism? Tune in to find out! Oh, and we also found the fake stabbing incident at the 2010 premiere of My Soul To Take, so that's included at the end and that's worth tuning in alone.
