Obsession
After breaking the mysterious "One Wish Willow" to win his crush's heart, a hopeless romantic finds himself getting exactly what he asked for but soon discovers that some desires come at a dark, sinister price.
Critics Sentiment
The film delivers its most alarming and violent sequences
Bear wishes for Nikki to love him more than anything
The film builds from the fateful wish moment to genuinely unnerving psychological horror, with the biggest jump occurring as Nikki's subtle wrongness transforms into genuinely frightening psychotic behavior.
Obsession builds steadily from a simple premise into genuinely unsettling psychological horror, with critics consistently praising its gradual escalation of unease rather than relying on jump scares. The film peaks during its most violent sequences while maintaining strong performances, particularly from Inde Navarrette's transformation. Despite some criticism of the male protagonist's implausible behavior, reviewers found it a successful and memorable horror experience that effectively explores themes of obsession and possession.
