After the success of Backrooms, A24 is attempting another internet horror phenomenon with V/H/S: SCP. However, the studio's claim of 'worldwide rights' to a film that must be released under a Creative Commons license is raising eyebrows among the SCP Foundation community.

The SCP Foundation, a fictional entity documenting paranormal phenomena, has a sprawling online presence and a dedicated fan base that relies on Creative Commons licensing. This means that any commercial adaptation, no matter how successful, could face legal challenges and distribution issues.

The community's frustration is palpable, with administrators attempting to reach out to the filmmakers without success. A24's previous missteps, such as copyright takedowns against Backrooms creators, have further alienated potential allies. Now, they face a complex legal landscape that could jeopardize the project's very existence.

The legal implications are significant. Even if A24 proceeds, the film would need to be released under the same Creative Commons terms, ensuring that others could freely distribute and build upon it. This would make traditional theatrical release less attractive, leaving A24 with difficult choices.
