And on Friday, fans were treated to an extended cut of Kane Parsons\u2019 horror hit, which came with <a data-id=\"https:\/\/variety.com\/2026\/film\/news\/backrooms-extended-version-coming-to-theaters-15-minutes-bonus-footage-a24-1236798460\/\" data-type=\"link\" href=\"https:\/\/variety.com\/2026\/film\/news\/backrooms-extended-version-coming-to-theaters-15-minutes-bonus-footage-a24-1236798460\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">an additional 15 minutes of post-credit footage<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tThe new footage begins with a team of Async Research Institute employees venturing into the Backrooms. Aysnc, the organization responsible for opening the gateway to the Backrooms, was seen at the end of the movie when Mary escapes and ends up speaking with Async researcher Phil (Mark Duplass) in a private room.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tThe opening of the post-credits scene firmly places the to-be-seen events on June 18, 1990. A group of hazmat suit-wearing Async employees, one of them holding a camera and establishing himself as the point of view, begin exploring the space.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tIn their words, it\u2019s the \u201csame hallway shit\u201d at the beginning, interceded by photos of doors and passageways, until they come across three signs with the same slogan: \u201cEverything Must Go. Entire Store on Sale.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tThe signs appear identical to the ones previously displayed in Clark\u2019s store, where he dresses up as a ship captain in hopes of attracting customers to his dying business. The voice-over, recorded like an on-duty log, says Dr. McCarthy is \u201ceager\u201d to see the signs for himself.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tThe next day, they set out to investigate the three signs. They try to decipher if they are recurring duplicates of one item or if they existed individually in the space they\u2019ve been copied from. The signs follow a descending order, and after concluding the signs were screen-printed and hung with steel cords, an off-screen voice demands they cut into the fourth wall, believing a fourth sign to exist there \u2014 which it does.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tAlso present in the wood panelling inside the wall is a hand sticking out of a beam. The central narrator panics, but at the command of their higher-ups, the team heads in anyway.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tOnce on the other side, the hand turns out to belong to a mannequin, standing next to a ship steering wheel. Also in the new room are more signs, coat racks and lawn furniture.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tThe Async employees begin to hear a sound in the distance, but keep exploring to find another mannequin and a steering wheel, this time half-submerged in the floor, and later a TV, flashing between a blue screen and flashes of seemingly random footage.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tThe increasingly loud clanging signals to the team that they \u201chave to go,\u201d but as they begin to make their exit, a figure appears abruptly, causing the team\u2019s members and the camera to crash to the floor as the narrator yells out, \u201cWhat the fuck!\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Everything must go in the new extended cut of Kane Parsons\u2018 \u201cBackrooms,\u201d released in theaters on Friday. \u201cBackrooms,\u201d&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1066513,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[3935],"tags":[21211,228614,77,228615,3943,16,15],"class_list":["post-1066512","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-movies","tag-a24","tag-backrooms","tag-entertainment","tag-kane-parsons","tag-movies","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/116857720525501436","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1066512","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1066512"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1066512\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1066513"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1066512"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1066512"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1066512"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
