“Backrooms,” A24‘s surprise horror hit, is looking to scare up more business over the July 4th holiday. The indie studio is re-releasing “Backrooms” with 15 minutes of bonus footage in a bid to bring back fans.

In a listing on AMC’s website, the film has been rechristened the “Backrooms: Everything Must Go Edition.” The exhibitor describes it as having a “theatrically exclusive post-credit” with additional footage from Kane Parsons, the film’s 20-year-old director. Parsons stunned Hollywood, both because of the film’s outsized success and because he had built up an impressive group of followers through the YouTube videos he shot while still a teenager. The new version of “Backrooms” will clock in at 2 hours and 6 minutes and hits theaters on July 3.
