[This story contains spoilers from Obsession.]
It’s a tale as old as time: Be careful what you wish for.
In Curry Barker’s supernatural horror film Obsession, Inde Navarrette’s Nikki becomes the target of a dangerous wish when her shy friend Bear (Michael Johnston), desperate to escape the friendzone, wishes that she would love him more than anyone else in the world. To his surprise, it works — but not in the fairytale way he imagined. Instead, Nikki’s love spirals into something violent, possessive and terrifying.
As Nikki transforms from an ordinary young woman into an unhinged force willing to do anything to keep Bear to herself, Navarrette delivers a seamless and chilling performance that has quickly positioned her as one of horror’s most exciting new talents.
