@filmspectors: Coincidence? Backrooms and Severance both create tension through unsettling, maze-like environments that make characters feel trapped and disconnected from reality. Severance focuses on a mysterious corporate workplace where employees’ work and personal memories are separated, exploring identity and control. Backrooms leans more into horror, centering on people lost in an endless labyrinth of empty rooms where the environment itself is threatening. While Severance is a psychological sci-fi thriller and Backrooms is a supernatural horror film, both use liminal spaces and a sense of isolation to create dread. #backrooms #thebackrooms #severance #movies #movietheater

They’re both based on the idea of liminal spaces. Very different stories but similar eerie vibe. Kane probably took subconscious inspo from the cinematography of severance since it is one of his favorite shows ! I love both

The kid is 20. He's grown up with severance and stranger things. This movie has a lot of inspiration of modern psych thriller stuff 👍 people confuse inspiration with imitation

esto es como ver star wars y después Dune, podrá parecer que Dune es copia cuando en realidad es la original
