Not understanding the larger context or who any of the referenced characters are is what kept me away. I gave it one episode and couldn’t understand what was happening so I bailed. It needed more narrative training wheels for folks like me.

Sad to see Apocalypse Hotel not here, but happy to see Lazarus suffering from its narrative wheel-spinning and complete lack of character definition.

A prodigy of a filmmaker and VFX artist barely out of high school, Parsons shot his YouTube following into the stratosphere with the viral success of his mysterious short, “The Backrooms (Found Footage).” It’s the first in a series of found-footage horror videos which have garnered many, many millions of views online and will now be adapted for the big screen by A24, Atomic Monster, Chernin Entertainment and 21 Laps.

Parsons will direct from a script by Roberto Patino. Shawn Levy, Dan Cohen and Dan Levine will produce for 21 Laps, along with James Wan and Michael Clear for Atomic Monster, and Patino. Alayna Glasthal is overseeing for Atomic Monster, with Judson Scott exec producing for the company alongside White.

So it's actually being directed by Kane Parsons, the person who made the original shorts. I'm very glad to hear this. And written by Roberto Patino who wrote several season 2 episodes of Westworld.

This all bodes very well.

Heuristics are real things deserving of both respect and fear.

I pulled the descriptive copy here from the online festival program and just updated it with the radio station details. Thank you for both the context and the film endorsement! I'm fairly certain this doesn't yet have a distribution deal in the US and, from the looks of it, is something that we should probably be watching.

I wonder how much Scarjo got paid to sit there and pretend to not laugh.

An ideal double feature with Sylvio.
