‘The Backrooms’ – Viral Shorts from Kane Parsons Getting a Feature Film from A24 and James Wan

A24, Atomic Monster, Chernin Entertainment and 21 Laps Entertainment are joining forces to adapt Kane Parsons’ massively viral YouTube horror universe The Backrooms, Bloody Disgusting has learned. Chernin Entertainment will co-finance the film alongside A24.

Shawn Levy, Dan Cohen and Dan Levine are producing for 21 Laps Entertainment. Lucas Ford from 21 Laps brought the project into the company.

James Wan and Michael Clear are producing for Wan’s Atomic Monster, with Judson Scott executive producing and Alayna Glasthal overseeing for the company.

Chris White brought the project to Atomic Monster and will be executive producing.

Roberto Patino (DMZ) is attached to write the screenplay and produce.

The science fiction horror film is based on the world of Kane Parsons’s viral videos. The film plot is being kept under wraps. The press release details, “Kane Parsons is a 17-year-old director and VFX artist. His viral found footage YouTube series The Backrooms has amassed nearly 100 million views. Parsons will direct the film over his Summer vacation.”

Emmy nominated Roberto Patino is the Creator and Showrunner of HBO Max’s limited series DMZ, starring Rosario Dawson and Benjamin Bratt, which he executive produced alongside Ava DuVernay. Patino’s past credits include being a Writer / Executive Producer of the first two seasons of Westworld and a writer/producer of Sons of Anarchy.

You can watch the original The Backrooms video from Parsons below, which is a particularly notable example of the “liminal horror” sub-genre that is all the rage at the moment.
