@Cosma: I think many people missed the point of the movie, or were just expecting a generic horror film based on sketchy internet theories. Kane Pixels didn’t make a movie about the Fandom Wiki; he brought his own vision of the Backrooms to life, focusing on the deepest, most niche side of it. His concept is incredibly close to the album "Everywhere at the End of Time". For Kane, the "levels" are actually levels of human memory: the deeper you go, the more fragmented and distorted everything becomes. Do an experiment: try to visualize the exact details of a relative's face. If that mental image were projected into the real world, it would look bizarre and deformed. This explains the kitchen scene with the entities that everyone is criticizing just because they wanted Roblox-style monsters. Kane’s creatures actually make sense: they are the vague, monstrous memory of someone who actually exists on Earth. This is exactly why the Bacteria entity isn't in the movie, it would have been generic and meaningless in this context. Many viewers got confused, but if you actually listen to the dialogue, the plot is pretty explicit. For instance, in the final scene, a lot of people are mistaking the therapist entity for the therapist herself transformed into a monster, completely missing the memory metaphor. We need to start watching movies with actual attention again instead of criticizing them just because they didn't match our expectations. Especially when the alternative was just another half-baked horror flick with a mysterious villain and zero substance. Huge props to Kane for his directorial courage.(this is not my text creds to top)
