'Backrooms' Makes A24 History in Record-Breaking Box Office Debut




Pandemonium erupted at the box office this weekend, with the holdover hit Curry Barker's Obsession delivering yet another weekend-on-weekend increase in revenue, and still finishing second on the charts. The number one movie globally this weekend was fellow horror title Backrooms, which summarily destroyed pre-release projections and set records that will be difficult to beat. It delivered the biggest opening-weekend haul in the 14-year history of indie outfit A24, grossing nearly thrice as much as the previous record-holder Marty Supreme's opening weekend haul from 2025. Additionally, Backrooms director Kane Parsonsis now the youngest filmmaker ever to deliver a number one opening at the global box office. At 20, Parsons is much younger than the previous record-holder, Josh Trank, who was 27 when Chronicledebuted at the top spot.
