A24's upcoming film adaptation of the internet horror phenomenon "The Backrooms" has released a new clip showing protagonist Clark, played by Chiwetel Ejiofor, discovering the mysterious liminal spaces that give the film its name. The Backrooms originated as a creepypasta concept, eerie, endless corridors and abandoned rooms that exist outside normal reality, and has spawned a devoted fanbase across social media and gaming communities. Ejiofor's character's initial encounter with these unsettling environments sets up the film's central horror premise. The release of this preview suggests A24 is building momentum ahead of the film's wider promotional push, leveraging the existing cult appeal of the Backrooms mythology.
