'Backrooms' blew past expectations, debuting with $81.4M at the U.S. box office, shattering A24’s previous opening weekend record and delivering the biggest domestic debut ever for an original horror film.
The breakout hit turned Kane Parsons’ viral YouTube horror series into a full-scale theatrical phenomenon, while making the 20-year-old the youngest filmmaker ever to debut a movie at No. 1 at the box office.
For a studio built on independent storytelling, 'Backrooms' is another sign that A24 can create true blockbuster moments without relying on established franchises.
