 It is perhaps a sign of the times. An internet image that just feels... off... sends online sleuths into a panic over the possibilities. It is, on the surface, just a photo of painful banality. A seemingly meaningless wall with rooms beyond a doorway, colored a dirty neutral. Such is the origin story of BACKROOMS, the film created by YouTuber KANE PARSONS at the tender age of 20 that injects unease of normality into the average. If you get the feeling that BLEAKness is heading your way, you're right. SÁTÁNTANGÓ is the next stop on the BLEAK CINEMA train and serves as an almost ten hour amuse bouche to this year's 2026 BLEAK WEEK. Scroll down for this year's upcoming options as well as a visit from director JOHN HILLCOAT! To round out this week a rare screening of ROCK and RULE presented by SUSPENDED ANIMATION and a special DALLAS AMBIENT MUSIC NIGHTS show FOR ALL MANKIND with ambient pedal steel player LUKE SCHNEIDER. Plenty more where that came from below! - JR
