On Monday evening I went to the cinema with my brother-in-law to watch Backrooms. There has been a great deal of buzz around the film, and although indie horror is not normally my genre, I can honestly say it was excellent. Whether intentionally or not, Backrooms serves as a devastating critique of postmodern storytelling. It captures the terror of a world emptied of meaning, and the kind of soul enchanted and seduced by such a horror. (If you would like to watch this film, please be advised that spoilers follow.)
