We both enjoyed the unique new horror film "BACKROOMS." It's the first movie I've ever seen in which the set was the main character. Intriguing from start to finish. #movie #movies #film #films #horror #horrorfilm #scary #scaryfilm #horrorfilms #scaryfilms #backrooms #liminal #liminalspaces #liminalspace #quirky #original #entertaining #edgeofonesseat #ChiwetelEjiofor #RenateReinsve #MarkDuplass #FinnBennett #LukitaMaxwell #avanjogia #RobertBobroczkyi #KristaKosonen #KaneParsons #furniture

This evening's viewing: some bonkers Japanese schlock, lo-fi #horror with Hot Springs Shark Attack. Yes, it is as silly as it sounds, but it knows it and runs with it. Bringing back memories of watching a lot of straight to video titles by Troma et al back im the day...

Review will follow in due course on @PhilEdwards 's Live For Film
