When a shy hopeless romantic makes a wish that his long-time crush falls in love with him, a sinister enchantment ensues in writer/director Curry Barker's freaky and frightening feature debut.
Bear (Michael Johnston) has long carried a torch for his childhood best friend Nikki (Inde Navarrette). After breaking a mysterious trinket to win her heart, he finds himself getting exactly what he wished for - and then some. Before long, his fantasy turns to nightmare as Nikki edges further and further into a dangerous and dark obsession...
A huge hit at Toronto International Film Festival last year, Obsession marks the arrival of a bold new voice in horror.
