Independent horror film Backrooms is a box office stunner.
>> Found a place.
It's massive in there.
>> Taking [snorts] in $82 million in domestic ticket sales in its opening weekend.
It's budget just $10 million, making it one of the most profitable movies of the year.
And the film's director, YouTube star Kane Parsons.
He's only 20 years old, now the youngest director ever to debut at number one with a feature film.
>> Migrating here to this version of filmmaking under the sort of Hollywood notion,
if you want to call it that, I think feels
like I I have an engine for what I do.
>> Backrooms is based on Parsons' YouTube horror series about a furniture store owner who finds a secret doorway that leads him to an endless stretch of nondescript rooms.
>> If this is what we can expect from young filmmakers, like we are in for some good movies.
>> It's not just Backrooms generating massive appeal for the Gen Z crowd.
>> I thought we were having a nice day.

>> Obsession, another low-budget horror film also directed by a YouTube star,
has taken in more than $104 million, posting three consecutive weekends of growth, the first non-Christmas release to enjoy such a streak since Jaws in 1975.
And earlier this year, Iron Lung, a horror movie from YouTube star Markiplier, brought in more than $50 million on a $4 million budget.
Industry observers are left to consider whether this is the beginning of a paradigm shift for Hollywood.
>> There's already talk of a Backrooms sequel.
Parsons, who turns 21 this month, says despite making this movie for the big screen, he's still committed to his fans on YouTube.
