Backrooms Horror Blockbuster to Stream Soon on Sony LIV

Backrooms Heads to OTT After Box Office Triumph

Director Kane Parsons, who made headlines for helming Backrooms at just 20 years old, is now preparing for the film’s digital debut. Backrooms, which stars Chiwetel Ejiofor, Renate Reinsve, Mark Duplass, Finn Bennett, and Lukita Maxwell, became a global phenomenon, grossing an impressive $330 million worldwide on a modest $10 million budget. This remarkable run established it as one of the most profitable horror films in recent years.

The film’s story centers on a furniture store operator who stumbles upon an endless maze of eerie, liminal spaces beneath his store. The unsettling premise and atmospheric direction drew massive international audiences, though its theatrical performance in India did not match the success of another Hollywood release, Obsession. Industry watchers now expect Backrooms to find a broader audience with its upcoming OTT release.

According to the latest updates, Backrooms will soon be available for streaming on Sony LIV. While the platform has not yet announced the exact premiere date, anticipation is building among horror fans eager to experience the film at home. The move to OTT is seen as an opportunity for Backrooms to reach viewers who missed its theatrical run, especially in regions where it had a limited box office impact.

Sony LIV’s acquisition of Backrooms adds another high-profile international title to its growing library, and the platform is expected to announce the streaming date shortly.
