Funky Brakes???

Funky Brakes???
We have a wonderful 2005 V70. But right now it is hard to back up. All brakes were redone two years ago. But, right now it seems the rear brakes are resisting when I want to back the car up. Rolls free for about 8 inches then it want to stop. It will back up if I get on the accelerator and force it.
Could a caliper have come loose? I don't even know if it has disk brakes on the rear, and it's too cold to go look. 3 degrees in rural Illinois.
I'm fishing for ideas about what might cause this. All ideas are appreciated.

That sounds like something to look at. I just had the car out to see how it would act now that it's warmed up a bit (22 degrees). I found that it rolls forward great, no problem with 'forward'. Backwards, the left rear wheel actually locks up. I can slide it along the road surface, but it won't roll.
Sure wish I knew something about brakes.
