“It smells like cat piss everywhere in that thing!” - Chris on the furniture store

For our third commentary track of 2026, we’re talking over the psychological sci-fi/horror sensation, Backrooms!

How incredible is the set design for this film? Would you buy furniture from Cap’n Clark’s Ottoman Empire? Did anyone else around our age or older get some really intense sense memory vibes thanks to this movie’s period accuracy? How mad do you have to be at a furniture store to spray paint ‘RIP OFF’ on its front window? And following a patient into the basement of his business is not necessarily the mark of a qualified therapist, just FYI. PLUS: Much praise for local upstate New York hot dog restaurant chain, Hot Dog Charlie’s!

Backrooms stars Chiwetel Ejiofor, Renate Reinsve, Finn Bennett, Lukita Maxwell, Avan Jogia, Robert Bobroczkyi, and Mark Duplass as Phil; directed by Kane Parsons.

If you want to watch along with us, we are starting the film at the time code 00:00:05, so five seconds into the picture. You should just see the yellow A24 Logo starting to form on your screen. If you’re in a rush and want to skip our intro, the commentary portion of this track starts at the 00:06:38 mark on the timecode.
