Backrooms: story and trailer overview
The story
In 1990 a furniture salesman named Clark finds a portal beneath his showroom that opens onto an apparently endless maze of office rooms. He recruits employee Kat and her boyfriend Bobby to map it, and when Clark vanishes the therapist Mary Kline ventures into the labyrinth to find him and a way out.
Why it works
For us, turning an ordinary furniture showroom into the entrance to an endless office maze is an unsettling idea. Clark’s disappearance gives that impossible space a personal connection: someone must enter it to search for him, even without knowing how to get out.
What to expect
We think the film will focus on tension from the maze’s scale and the characters’ attempts to navigate it, likely mixing claustrophobic atmosphere with puzzle-like discovery. Expect character-driven suspense rather than guaranteed action set pieces.
Our take
For us, the appeal here is a grounded, eerie concept: familiar workplaces turned into a confounding labyrinth and a personal rescue mission with psychological implications.
