    Didn’t watch obsession but backrooms is fun. Has a low-budget horror movie vibe which isnt really a bad thing. The horror itself isn’t especially scary, but quite unsettling. The ending I thought was quite weak, it really obviously tries to set itself up for a sequel in quite an off-putting way

      Thank you. If I understood wendigoon correctly, the movie is basically the prequel to the entire YouTube series, which I thought was pretty neat, but sucks that he didn’t stick the landing. Bit of a bummer.

      I think Kane is super good at making spaces feel threatening. I still remember that one he made about the giant on wheels, that chases a guy through a mall and it’s borderline ridiculous how such a silly concept can be this scary, haha.

      I look forward to checking it out.

      Highly recommend Obsession as well, my friend. That film is terrifying and the ending is horrific in the best way possible.
