30,000-Square-Foot Backrooms Set Built for Kane Parsons Horror Film
Production designer Danny Vermette constructed a 30,000-square-foot set for Kane Parsons's internet-inspired horror film 'The Backrooms,' based on the creepypasta and 2019 4chan post. The set, built in a warehouse, recreated the eerie liminal spaces of endless yellow corridors and empty offices. The crew reportedly got lost while filming due to the labyrinthine design. The film adapts the viral online phenomenon into a feature-length movie, with Parsons directing. Vermette focused on creating an authentic, disorienting environment that mirrors the original digital aesthetic.
