OM DENNE EPISODE
The internet's favourite nightmare has finally escaped YouTube and made its way to the big screen.Join Neil and special guest Clare from the W-Rated Podcast as we dive into Backrooms, Kane Parsons' hugely anticipated horror film adaptation of the viral phenomenon. We discuss how low-budget horror continues to punch well above its weight, following in the footsteps of recent breakout successes like Backrooms and Obsession, and ask whether a new generation of YouTube creators are proving they can bring their audiences from the algorithm to the box office.As always, we break down the good, the bad and the WTF moments from the film. Does Backrooms live up to the hype? Does its liminal horror work on a feature-length scale? And just how many endless yellow corridors is too many endless yellow corridors?We also share our own real-life liminal space horror stories, including Clare's surreal experience getting hopelessly lost in the backrooms of Disney World at 2am, and Neil's deeply unsettling midnight journey into the basement of a castle that felt like he'd accidentally noclipped out of reality.So grab a flashlight, keep an eye on the ceiling tiles, and whatever you do, don't follow the noises down the corridor...Follow We Needed Roads Podcast on the socials:🐦 Twitter/Xhttps://twitter.com/NeededRoads📸 Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/weneededroads🎵 TikTokhttps://www.tiktok.com/@weneededroadspodcast🎧 Follow us on Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/0E31ucDQy7Ha5PRdtahAjb?si=50a97260f09f4ad7👤 Our SocialsNeilhttps://bsky.app/profile/neilg78.bsky.socialhttps://www.instagram.com/neil_gregory78Neil’s Substack:https://substack.com/@greggors78And find Clare at 📸 Instagramclareellenhope🐦 Twitter/Xclareellenhope🎵 TikTokclareellenhope1And her podcasthttps://youtube.com/@w-rated?si=4qXPZOoi8roWOLZnhttps://open.spotify.com/show/2x7Ag7oDjg1e9mKOw9eGDO?si=b288ae7fe710454e#Backrooms #KaneParsons #HorrorMovies #MovieReview #LiminalSpaces #WeNeededRoads #WRatedPodcast
