‘Backrooms’ The World's #1 Movie Opens In The Philippines With Only Limited Cinemas

Global Horror Phenomenon BACKROOMS Opens June 3; Filipino Audiences Urged to Secure Tickets Early 

After dominating the global box office and becoming the No. 1 movie in the world, BACKROOMS arrives in Philippine cinemas beginning June 3. But unlike most major Hollywood releases, the horror phenomenon will only be shown in a limited number of cinemas nationwide, making every screening one of the most sought-after movie events of the season. 

The film shattered expectations during its opening weekend, earning US$118 million worldwide and claiming the No. 1 spot at the global box office. It also delivered the biggest opening weekend in A24 history, the largest debut ever for an original horror film, and the biggest launch ever for a first-time filmmaker. 

CreaZion Studios, A24’s official partner for ‘Backrooms’ in the Philippines announces that Filipino audiences will finally get the chance to experience the movie that has captivated audiences around the world — if they can find a screening near them. 

With only select cinemas carrying the film, horror fans are encouraged to secure tickets early and plan their viewing with friends before screenings sell out. 

More than a movie, BACKROOMS has become a cultural phenomenon. Born from the viral internet horror series that amassed hundreds of millions of views worldwide, the film transforms the unsettling mythology of endless yellow hallways and impossible spaces into a terrifying cinematic experience that audiences have been discussing, dissecting, and daring each other to watch. 

And if there is one piece of advice from viewers around the world, it is simple: Don't you dare go in alone.

BACKROOMS is the kind of movie best experienced with friends — the kind that leaves audiences screaming, grabbing the armrest, and debating theories long after the credits roll. 

Whether you're a horror fanatic, a thrill-seeker, or simply curious about the film everyone is talking about, BACKROOMS is an experience designed to be shared. 

Because once you enter the Backrooms, you'll want someone beside you. BACKROOMS opens in select Philippine cinemas beginning June 3. 

Gather your barkada. Find a screening. Enter the Backrooms. Before the rooms fill up.
