The effect of Backrooms (2026) on a society.

the pull is so strong
that movie fuckin ruled but you'd also think people would learn from the death count vs character count that like maiebe theie shouldn't go in

I'd argue the effect it's had on society began when the original 4chan post started making it's way across the wider internet.

The original post didn’t have actual entities in it, which was the entire premise of the liminal space in between. We are specifically dealing in entities and the movie came out very recently. So, for the purposes of this joke post, that is what was referenced.

Ah, apologies then.
