Japanese Trailer / Kane to Visit Japan

A new Japanese trailer has been posted by A24 Japan which includes an introduction by Kane Parsons. The trailer includes a couple of scenes that weren’t originally featured on any of the English trailers.

The social media posts accompanying the trailer also included an announcement that Kane would be visiting Japan for the first time to promote the film. No date for the visit or where he would be appearing has been announced as yet.

Fun fact : Capn Clark's Ottoman Empire actually has 2 clients shown on screen

Though Clark and Kat won't even get off their fat fucking ass to help them.

EMG - Sign Axis?

It seems pretty clear to me that the signs are following an arc pattern. So that leads me to ask what the circumference of that arc is and where we find its center point. Also, they almost appear to be rotating. It’s almost like they’re planets orbiting a sun…

So what’s the gravitational center of this set of instances?

Also, I know someone found a potential 5th sign that was even smaller, but I just realized it has no cabling to suspend it from the roof. That’s not to say it couldn’t be entirely inverted with cables hanging beneath, but there are at least none visible.

Captain Clark pegleg theory

A cool detail I find about captain Clarks pegleg breaking so easily is because it was made from poorly constructed furniture from Clarks store. (the chair leg he used as pegleg for commercial) its definitely been shown Clark sells crap furniture or cheaply made furniture. Any other chair leg wood easily hold up from Mary's swing if it was a solid piece of oak or pine.

Backrooms: Async – Final Release

The Async Research Institute sends expedition teams to map a seemingly infinite labyrinth hidden beyond reality the direction of the enigmatic Ivan Beck. As the project progresses, they discover that this liminal plane is far more dangerous than they ever imagined, filled with impossible architecture, unexplained phenomena, and hostile entities that threaten both the researchers and anyone unfortunate enough to fall into the Backrooms

After several revisions, I'm happy to finally release the definitive version of Backrooms: Async

With the release of Everything Must Go on Kane Parsons' YouTube channel and the digital release of the A24 film, this edit now includes the highest-quality versions of every scene used in the project. I've also made a handful of small refinements to transitions, audio, and pacing to polish the overall experience.

About the Edit

Backrooms: Async is a feature length fan edit that reimagines Kane Parsons' YouTube Backrooms series as a single cinematic narrative designed to serve as a prequel to the A24 film.
The story is presented mostly in chronological order, with the three Found Footage entries edited and intercut alongside the main Async storyline. Since these episodes were originally self contained, restructuring them allowed me to improve the pacing, reduce repetition, and better integrate them into the overarching narrative.
A small number of scenes and lines of dialogue from the A24 film have also been incorporated where they help strengthen continuity with the film without revealing its major story beats. The edit is intended to enhance the experience of the movie rather than replace it, making it an ideal companion piece to watch either before or after the film. (though for people new to this franchise i do suggest watching the A24 film first!)

Music has been added to most scenes using tracks from both Kane's YouTube series and the A24 soundtrack. The only exception is "Warmth" by C418

Included Videos in order:

Overflow
Prototype
The Third Test
First Contact
Fault Line
Light and Tile Survey
Missing Persons

I remember

Alongside these, the edit features a select number of shots from the A24 film, carefully chosen to connect the two stories while keeping the focus on the Async narrative.

Runtime: 2hrs19min

This version represents the completed vision I originally had for Backrooms: Async, and unless future official Backrooms content significantly expands this era of the story, I consider this project complete.
Thank you to everyone who watched earlier versions and shared feedback throughout development. I hope you enjoy this final release.

DM me for a link to the movie!

(if you already asked for a link from me in the past, its the same one to access my newest edit!!)

If we ever get another Backrooms movie, should it have more locations based on the actual Backrooms location?

As a mentally ill person I relate to Clark and that makes him even scarier as the type of person he is

I understand wanting to blame your brain for the things you do, feeling like your feelings are making you do things and it's not you responding to them badly

I relate to him wanting to stay in the backrooms because he doesn't have to face the outside world or any real people or any of the problems he's caused or hardships he still struggles with

And that's terrifying. Because he's what would probably happen if I did let those thoughts consume me, that it's just the way I'm made and running away and isolating myself would make it worse, and possibly make me hurt people if they tried to help because I'm past wanting to be helped, or even ultimately myself

Excellent psychological horror, feels incredibly real and also a little bit of a confirmation that I'm getting better as a person

I made the Backrooms wallpaper

Took a printmaking class this summer. This was my final project. First image is my best print, followed by the original Backrooms wallpaper pattern, 2 more colorways, and my linocut block.
