Part of a new wave of innovative low-budget horror films directed by Gen Z YouTubers and sweeping Hollywood – along with Kane Parsons’ Backrooms and Markiplier’s Iron Lung – Curry Barker’s Obsession is a heady, horrifying, queasily relatable box office smash that’s been hailed “an instant horror classic”.

 

Hopeless romantic Bear (Michael Johnston) has a long-time crush on his friend Nikki (Inde Navarette) but can’t work up the courage to ask her out. After breaking a mysterious novelty gift he bought her – the "One Wish Willow" – he gets exactly what he wished for, but soon discovers that some desires come at a dark, sinister price.
