‘Backrooms’ Trailer: Chiwetel Ejifor & Renate Reinsve Find Horrifying New Meaning In “Everything Must Go”

“All these rooms … this place builds them.”

Wait, say what?

“It’s like a maze — it just goes on and on.”

Here’s the first full trailer for BackroomsA24‘s sci-fi horror film starring Chiwetel Ejiofor and Sentimental Value Oscar nominee Renate Reinsve. Check out the clip above and the poster below.

Based on the viral series of found-footage videos from director Kane Parsons, the film follows folks as they explore an unsettlingly yellow, empty and labyrinthine office space found behind the walls of a retail outlet. Does it house otherworldly beings?

“Sometimes I’m scared I’ll get lost,” we hear in the trailer. Legit concern.

The film’s title and setting draw inspiration from the imagery of a creepypasta — user-generated internet urban legends — published to the website 4chan in 2019. The 1990s-set original short followed a young filmmaker’s fall into another dimension.

Mark Duplass, Finn Bennett, and Lukita Maxwell also star in Backrooms, from 21 Laps, Atomic Monster and Phobos. Will Soodik (Ash vs. Evil Dead) penned the screenplay, and producers are James Wan, Michael Clear, Roberto PAtino, Shawn LEvy, Dan Cohen, Dan LEvine, Osgood Perkins, Chris Ferguson, Peter Chernin, Jenno Topping and Kori Adelson.

Sporting the tagline, “Everything Must Go,” the film hits theaters on May 29. Maybe think twice before you ask the retailer if they have what you need in the back.
