Sometimes, people miss what’s right in front of them.
In Curry Barker‘s Obsession, Bear (Michael Johnston) uses a One Wish Willow and wishes for his longtime crush, Nikki (Inde Navarrette), to love him more than anyone else in the world. The wish comes true, but at the cost of tragic consequences.
One of those comes when Nikki kills Megan Lawless’ Sarah after Bear sneaks out to talk to her in her car. While the scene shown in the final film is already brutal, Sarah’s death was originally more graphic in the cut that premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival in September. What made it even more tragic was that Sarah had feelings for Bear that she was seemingly about to vocalize — and then it was too late. “Sarah would have been the ideal choice. I think they would have just been perfect for each other,” Johnston previously told The Hollywood Reporter.
