A24’s “Backrooms,” the viral YouTube adaptation from first-time director Kane Parsons, delivered a record-shattering $81 million domestic opening that far exceeded pre-release tracking, setting up a steep second-weekend decline typical of non-franchise original horror titles. With strong front-loaded Gen Z turnout and no established IP to sustain legs, industry estimates point to a 55-60% drop into the low-to-mid $30 million range, though trader consensus has priced even sharper erosion below $27 million. The film’s rapid $100 million domestic milestone in under a week underscores its breakout momentum while highlighting the classic post-opening correction risk for buzzy, limited-audience horror releases ahead of the June 5-7 frame.
