Unlike regular horror films that depend mostly on jump scares, Backrooms focuses on fear, confusion and the feeling of being trapped in a strange place with no escape. The film follows the unsettling world that fans of the online phenomenon are already familiar with.

The makers, as per a release, said that the movie expands the universe of Backrooms with disturbing visuals, suspense and mysterious spaces that have already become popular across social media platforms and horror communities worldwide.
