This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

That's a wild 24 hours!
My impression is that Backrooms is a more unique concept and it's focus may be more on telling this weird, complex story about people and governments being exposed to an inexplicable phenomena, where Obsession is an intimate story that focuses on the complexities of relationships in a modern context.
So, I mean, maybe it was unfair of me to ask if one is as good as the other as they try to do very differenet things. Probably should have asked if they have a similar entertainment value. Because as a sucker for psychological and interpersonal horror, I don't expect that I will connect in the same way with Backrooms as I did with Obsession, but I hope it's at least a fun ride that would be worth a movie ticket. :D
As long as Backrooms isn't as terrible as The Happening, then I'm good. It's almost been 20 years and I'm still low key mad that I spent money on a ticket for that POS movie. The fact that it became an internet meme years later, didn't help my regret and disdain. XD to think, back then, you expected every movie to be of a certain standard of quality as a movie goer. If the happening was released today it would be considered a masterpiece on Netflix, lol.
