I was going to write this review ages ago but I kept forgetting. I watched the movie as soon as it came out, and, it was okay. Pretty slow paced but I think it helps for those who know nothing about the whole concept. It slows the idea for the audience and even if it's boring for those who know, it keeps new viewers curious enough to look into it. By no means was this a perfect movie. Certainly not. But I give it credit for attempting to even make it. The things that belong in the Backrooms are so abstract that it could be almost anything and also nothing. I like Clark's character, a man who got kicked out of his own home, going through mental health problems and talking to a therapist while managing his furniture store was interesting. Boring in paper, but fun with his actor. If there's a sequel then this is a great start to understanding the whole ordeal. Questions I have? How long was Clark in the Backrooms? Why did he trust the other entities? When did he figure out he could cut/eat them? Did the therapist ever make it out? What did they do with her? Where are the scientists located? Is it in the Backrooms or outside? How are they able to hide their findings? What will happen to the characters that died in the real world? Are they ever going to find them? Many questions, which is what this setting always leaves.
