So like original backroom, I like that, will have to go see it.
Exactly like it, because it's made by the original creator! A24 gave Kane a huge amount of leeway to tell the story his way, not the Hollywood way.
Kane said it's cannon to his youtube series. You can watch it on his Kane Pixels channel. It will give you a general idea of the type of horror you can expect. He's very good at building tension. The Oldest View and his current work People Still Live Here are good too.
The first Oldest View is my favorite. Simple, yet hits the surreal horror that all of this is grounded on. At one point the person stops and quietly says, "I shouldn't be here." That is core liminal fear.
