Haven’t watched Obsession, but I loved the Backrooms. I’ve never seen my fiancé more horrified by a movie, and a friend that was with us had to step away for a bit.
Fair warning though, the protagonist does get verbally agressive/abusive/physically abusive.
There was also a lot more gore than I was expecting, because Kane typically keeps it light.
Easily one of my favorite movies this year.

I should hope so, since it’s a horror movie xD
But cool. I’ll check it out. I know a bit about Kane Pixel and his style through Wendigoon and I’m sure he made something freaky with the concept. I blank on the lead actor’s name, but I really liked him in 12 years a slave and its cool to see him in a movie like this one!
You should really consider seeing Obsession as well, my friend. It is currently threatening to kick The Wailing out of my personal number 1 spot for favourite horror movie of all time. The bedroom scene is one of the most viscerally terrifying scenes I have ever seen. I’m a big fan of horror and while I do scare relatively easily, I rarely carry the fear with me after the credits.
Obsession kept me awake for two straight days because of that fucking bedroom scene. Total masterpiece of a scene, and the movie is very, very close to being flawless. Maybe don’t bring fiancé if she isn’t good with horror, though, because this one embeds itself into your nervous system for a little while after seeing it. Not only is it scary, it’s also funny as hell and deeply tragic and quite the conversation starter.
