Adam finally caught Obsession, the sub-million-dollar Blumhouse phenomenon that became the horror hit of the year, and he's got reservations the hype train left behind. A full-spoilers breakdown of why Inde Navarrette's multi-layered performance is genuinely Oscar-worthy, how the monkey's-paw premise nails its unsettling middle stretch, and why the blood-soaked third act breaks the film's own fantasy rules, and its moral center, by making Nikki's suffering suddenly, unbearably real. Plus the Lisa Frankenstein problem, the case for Bear as an unreliable narrator, and the Blumhouse model working exactly as designed.

Obsession — who hasn't seen it at this point? Curry Barker's $750K horror film has made over $400 million, minted a star in Inde Navarrette, and started a fight about what to even call this genre. This week we dig into the BTS trivia, the scenes we can't stop thinking about, and the Indian censor board's missing 36 seconds. Then we get into nice guy horror itself: the worst Pokémon evolution you've ever heard, Bollywood's hypermasculine inverse, and the Indian remake of Obsession that lives in our heads.

Constantine Rousouli is a two-time Tony nominated actor, writer and producer, best known for co-creating, writing, and starring in hit Broadway musical TITANIQUE, which earned four Tony nominations this season, including “Best Musical” and “Best Book of a Musical.” The show is a satirical reimagining of the Oscar-winning feature film Titanic from the point of view of Celine Dion. Connie stars as “Jack Dawson.” TITANIQUE has received rave reviews and critical acclaim including two Lucille Lortel Awards, two Olivier Awards, and Drama League and Drama Desk nominations. The show previously toured off-Broadway in Chicago, Canada, London, Australia, and Paris and kicked off its Broadway run this spring at the St. James Theatre with Connie returning as “Jack” alongside returning castmate & co-creator Marla Mindelle as “Celine Dion” and new cast additions Jim Parsons and Deborah Cox. The production has also extended its Broadway run through the end of September, driven by its continued popularity and positive reception from audiences.  Following the success of TITANIQUE, Connie and his longtime collaborator & partner Marla Mindelle debuted their new off-Broadway musical, BIG GAY JAMBOREE, backed by producer Margot Robbie and LuckyChap. Marla & Connie are also developing TROOP! A BEVERLY HILLSICAL with A24 for The Cherry Lane Theatre.   Connie & Marla are also currently in development with Broadway Video and UTV on an original half-hour comedy series that they are co-writing and would star in together. The idea came together after Lorne Michaels saw (& fell in love with) TITANIQUE and had Connie & Marla test for SNL. Connie first got his start on Broadway with the revival of Hairspray as “Link Larkin.” He toured with Wicked as “Prince Fiyero”, performed in the Hollywood Bowl run of Hair with Kristen Bell, directed by Adam Shankman, and made waves starring as “Sebastian” in the off-Broadway cult hit Cruel Intentions: The 90s Musical Experience. Marla has graced Broadway stages in productions such as South Pacific, Cinderella, and as part of the original cast of Sister Act as “Sister Mary Robert.” Connie's TV & film acting credits include THE OTHER TWO (Comedy Central/Max), 9-1-1 (Fox), AJ AND THE QUEEN (Netflix), THE DEUCE (HBO), the CW reboot of CHARMED as a fan-favorite heartthrob villain, and Blumhouse & Universal's THIS IS THE NIGHT.

The Spin Chagrin, a concept that finds Frank having to watch a movie he's never seen before based on the random spin of a wheel filled with off-the-wall genres, continues into its fourth year. All the categories are quotables from Frank himself. In this episode, Frank's category was "Boogey-itis.” For this category, he naturally watched and reviewed the 2008 Boogeyman 3, produced by Blumhouse.

Welcome to Multiverse News, your source for information about all your favorite fictional universes.Everyone's forgotten Peter Parker…or have they? Sony gave us a second full trailer for Spider-Man: Brand New Day and the interwebs are buzzing about it. We get longer looks at Mark Ruffalo's Bruce Banner/Hulk and Jon Bernthal's Frank Castle/Punisher in the film, as well as allusions to the big bad of the movie - though Tom Holland recently said on the press tour that the antagonist has not been figured out yet by fans. Films continue to top each other's openings at the box office this year, with Toy Story 5 having the current title of best opening of the year to the tune of $160 million domestically over the Father's Day weekend. This was also the all-time best opening for the 30-year-old franchise. Disclosure Day took second place this weekend, though Toy Story practically beat its global take in the states alone, and Obsession and Backrooms continue their strong streaks coming in at third and fourth respectively.Universal and Blumhouse's Atomic Monster are jumping on the Curry Barker bandwagon having acquired the young director's third film in a reported eight figure deal. While Universal has been backing Barker, both Obsession and his upcoming film Anything But Ghosts are coming from Focus Features. Blumhouse has produced those same films, but this new move puts the horror powerhouse in a stronger position for film development. To tag onto the box office talk and remind you, Obsession was made for $750,000 and has now made more than $300 million worldwide - making it a tantalizing prospect for Blumhouse.Netflix has opted not to proceed with a second season of The Boroughs, a sci-fi TV series executive produced by Stranger Things creators The Duffer Brothers. The series debuted its first season last month. Universal and Imagine Entertainment are developing a sequel to 2000's How the Grinch Stole Christmas, with Jim Carrey in talks to reprise his role as the classic Dr. Seuss character the Grinch and Ron Howard returning to direct. Manny Jacinto, Emily Mortimer, and Thomasin McKenzie have joined the Season 3 cast of Prime Video's Fallout in recurring roles. In a new interview with Collider, Illumination CEO Chris Meledandri revealed that Star Wars creator George Lucas was cast in a small voice part in the upcoming Minions and Monsters because Lucas is a longtime fan of the Despicable Me franchise. Toy Story 4 director Josh Cooley is reteaming with Keanu Reeves for a live-action hybrid Lego movie that Cooley will direct and Reeves will star in according to Deadline. Netflix has won the rights to develop Alix E. Harrow's best selling novel The Everlasting and will enter production on a series adaptation immediately according to Variety. The Everlasting is a time loop fantasy novel and was one of the best selling books of last year.Universal Pictures has announced that the next Illumination animated film will be Not Alone, an alien movie starring Timothée Chalamet & Selena Gomez which will release in April of next year. Dylan Clark's reboot of The Blair Witch Project for Lionsgate has landed a release date of September 24, 2027.Legendary has announced that a live action Magic School Bus movie is officially in the works with Elizabeth Banks set to play Ms. Frizzle. Detective Pikachu and Goosebumps director Rob Letterman will helm the feature.

Join Alec and Guest Stevie Caruso as they explores the film's themes of desire, control, and the fine line between passion and fixation.

Send us Fan MailA low-budget thriller shouldn't be able to rattle you like this, but Obsession does. We go spoiler-free on what made it hit so hard, why it felt scarier than a lot of bigger “horror” releases, and how a movie can build fear without leaning on CGI or cheap jump scares. If you're searching for a real-world Obsession movie review, an indie horror thriller recommendation, or just something worth leaving the house for, we get into exactly why it stuck with us after the credits.From there, we zoom out into movie culture: the A24 trust factor, Blumhouse-level momentum, and why theaters are getting packed again. We talk big formats like IMAX and 70mm, what's being marketed the hardest, and how nostalgia releases pull different generations into the same room. Then we pivot into something bigger than film: attention. Cursive disappearing, handwritten notes becoming rare, and the weird reality that people can record an entire concert on their phone and never watch it again.We also get honest about tech and money, from AI-generated podcast elements to subscription fatigue with YouTube Premium, Netflix, and all the bundles. The thread that ties it together is focus and presence: multitasking is mostly a myth, social media rewards performative living, and comment sections make people brave in the worst way. If you've felt distracted, overstimulated, or tired of the online noise, this conversation lands with practical truth and a lot of laughs.Subscribe for more unfiltered takes, share this with a friend who needs a new thriller to watch, and leave a review so more people can find the show. What's one habit you want to break: doomscrolling, recording everything, or paying for subscriptions you don't use?Thanks for listening to the Nobody's Talking Podcast.

Horror history gets dangerously domestic this week as This Week in Horror History travels through June 1–7 with haunted houses, killer sequels, cursed children, dystopian violence, mature themes, and one deeply uncomfortable genetic-engineering nightmare.This episode digs into a packed week of classic horror movies, cult horror sequels, supernatural horror, Blumhouse hits, and underrated sci-fi body horror, including the return of Norman Bates, the suburban nightmare of Poltergeist, the perfectly timed 6/6/06 release of The Omen remake, and the birth of The Purge as a modern horror franchise.Inside this episode:• Psycho II brings Norman Bates back to the Bates Motel in one of horror's most surprisingly strong legacy sequels.• Poltergeist turns the American dream house into a supernatural trap full of TV static, cursed land, and unforgettable 1980s horror imagery.• The Omen remake arrives on 6/6/06, turning a horror release date into pure Antichrist marketing gold.• The Purge launches a massive Blumhouse franchise with one terrifying idea: for twelve hours, all crime is legal.• The Deep-Cut Spotlight goes to Splice, the disturbing 2010 sci-fi horror film about genetic engineering, parental failure, and the nightmare of creating life without the courage to take responsibility for it.Plus: a horror birthday roll featuring Danielle Harris, Keith David, Robert Englund, and Jessica Tandy, a creepy look at what these stories say about control, family, suburbia, and civilization, and a weekly recommendation for Sean Byrne's vicious prom-night horror film The Loved Ones.From haunted television screens to cursed children, science gone rotten, and a society where the rules turn off for one night, this week proves horror is often scariest when it moves into the places that were supposed to keep us safe.

Paranormal Activity, found footage horror, demonic hauntings, and the nightmare of being watched while you sleep take center stage in this episode of Cutting Deep into Horror, as Henrique Couto and Rachael Redolfi dig into the low-budget movie that turned a bedroom doorway, a static camera, and a few impossible noises into modern horror history.This week, Henrique and Rachael discuss Paranormal Activity, the 2007 found footage supernatural horror film written and directed by Oren Peli, starring Katie Featherston and Micah Sloat. The movie follows a couple who begin filming their home after a disturbing presence seems to become more active at night, and that simple setup helped turn the film into one of horror's biggest micro-budget success stories. AFI lists Oren Peli as director, writer, cinematographer, and editor, with Katie Featherston and Micah Sloat in the cast; Box Office Mojo lists the estimated budget at $15,000 and the worldwide gross at $193,355,933.Henrique and Rachael get into why Paranormal Activity still feels eerie, why its bedroom-camera setup works so well, and how the movie weaponizes waiting. This is not glossy haunted house horror. It is a movie about small sounds, weird behavior, relationship tension, and the terrifying idea that something may be standing in the room while you are asleep.Inside this episode:• Why Paranormal Activity became a found footage phenomenon — Henrique and Rachael talk about the film's perfect timing, its word-of-mouth power, and how its low-budget realism helped make it feel scarier than more polished studio horror.• Katie and Micah's relationship as horror fuel — The episode digs into the uneasy dynamic between Katie and Micah, including how Micah's ego, skepticism, and need to keep filming make the haunting feel more personal and more frustrating.• Less-is-more supernatural terror — From bedroom shadows to long silences, tiny movements, footsteps, doors, and nighttime dread, the conversation looks at how the film turns minimal effects into maximum tension.• The power of found footage believability — Henrique and Rachael compare Paranormal Activity to other found footage movies, including Cloverfield, while discussing why roughness, improvisation, and simplicity can make horror feel more immediate.• The ending and alternate endings — The episode covers the final escalation, Katie's possession, Micah's fate, the psychic's warning, and why the last image is so important to the film's impact.• Why the movie still matters — Whether you think it is terrifying, overhyped, or somewhere in between, Paranormal Activity helped reshape mainstream horror and proved that a scary idea, executed with discipline, could hit harder than a monster in full view.Where to watch Paranormal Activity in the U.S.:Currently, Paranormal Activity is listed as streaming on Paramount+, Paramount+ via Amazon Channel, and fuboTV. It is also listed for digital rental or purchase through Fandango at Home, Apple TV, and Amazon Video. Paramount+ also has an official movie page for the film. Availability changes often, so double-check your preferred app before recording or publishing.

Is seed investing facing an existential crisis? This week on The Data Minute, Peter sits down with Rob Go, Founding Partner at NextView Ventures, to discuss the structural shifts making the "game on the field" harder than ever for early-stage investors.Rob explains why many successful seed VCs are exiting the industry and how the rise of mega-funds and massive accelerators like YC has squeezed traditional seed firms into a narrow "subset" of the market. They dive into the "feeder fund" phenomenon, the arbitrary nature of ownership mandates, and why the $1B–$3B exit range has become a "Death Valley" for startups.Despite the current angst, Rob shares his optimistic "bull case" for 2030, explaining why diminishing competition and a rotation away from late-stage consensus will lead to a healthier venture substrate in the years to come.Subscribe to Carta's weekly Data Minute newsletter: https://carta.com/subscribe/data-newsletter-sign-up/Explore interactive startup and VC data, with Carta's Data Desk: https://carta.com/data-desk/Chapters:00:20 – Intro: Rob Go and the Seed Existential Crisis02:16 – Defining Seed: Betting on anything before PMF03:35 – Why senior seed VCs are exiting the industry05:02 – The Squeeze: Mega-funds vs. Accelerators07:02 – Scarcity vs. Abundance: What's left for seed funds?08:44 – The "Feeder Fund" trap and the factory supply chain12:38 – The risk of taking seed money from a mega-fund13:34 – Breaking down the 4 styles of seed investing15:20 – Why specialist seed funds can be transient19:29 – Super Compounders: Will exits keep getting bigger?21:59 – The "Death Valley" of $1B–$3B exits25:08 – The Blumhouse equivalent for venture capital27:18 – Normalizing secondaries as an exit strategy33:53 – Rant: Why ownership targets are backwards39:04 – Offensive vs. Defensive bridge rounds45:07 – "I've become way more Zen": Why the 2030 outlook is bullish50:18 – OutroThis presentation contains general information only and eShares, Inc. dba Carta, Inc.

Obsession (2025) | Does Curry Barker's Divisive Horror Live Up to the Hype? ft. Raiders of the Podcast & EF ContentmentJose (Cupcake) and Mike (WillDaBeast) bring back two beloved pod guests — Kevin from Raiders of the Podcast and E.f. Contentment — for a spoiler-free review of Obsession (2025), the polarizing TIFF sensation from YouTube filmmaker Curry Barker, now distributed by Blumhouse.Part Gen Z Fatal Attraction, part Ari Aster descent-into-dread, Obsession arrives loaded with hype, and the crew debates whether it earns every bit of it. Starring Michael Johnston and a star-making Indy Navarrete, this is a horror film with layers: a monkey's paw premise modernized into something raw, uncomfortable, and genuinely hard to shake. Imagine Hereditary meets May meets Fresh — and you're still not quite there.The Boyz cover Barker's origin story (including his debut $800 found footage film Milk & Serial), the film's consent and mental health subtext, and whether Indy Navarrete is the next Mia Goth.

What he can create with no money is amazing and I've said numerous times that if given the budget, he would be the next big name. Well, with about $750k, he made one kick ass horror flick.If you're not doing so already, please like and follow Classic American Movies on Instagram and Facebook.

The final episode of AIpril, M3GAN arrived in January 2023 as a modest Blumhouse horror release, and promptly became one of the most talked-about horror comedies of the year. On a budget of $12 million, it grossed over $180 million worldwide, spawned a franchise, and put a ten-second hallway dance sequence into the permanent vocabulary of internet culture.Director Gerard Johnstone insisted from the outset on a practical-effects-first approach, and supervising puppeteer Adrien Morot built a suite of six or seven animatronic puppets capable of different ranges of movement — some with articulated eyes and heads, others with fully computerised motion control. The defining creative rule was simple: animatronic when still, performer when moving. That performer was Amie Donald, a ten-year-old New Zealand national dance champion and brown belt in karate, who wore a static silicone mask on set that was later replaced in post-production with a digitally animated face by Wētā Workshop. The result is a character who occupies the uncanny valley not as a technical failure but as a deliberate aesthetic strategy; M3GAN is unsettling precisely because you can never quite be sure what you're looking at.M3GANs design decision had downstream consequences the production could not entirely have anticipated: audiences, particularly on TikTok and in queer communities, embraced M3GAN as a style icon. Universal's chief marketing officer Michael Moses identified the hallway dance sequence, performed by Amie Donald, and utilised TikTok dance trends and built the campaign around letting it spread organically rather than manufacturing a formal challenge.M3GAN is a genuinely well-crafted piece of genre filmmaking, with a practical effects philosophy rooted in old-school puppetry and a central performance of remarkable physical intelligence, which makes it fun and accessible, but also threads together anxieties about outsourced parenting, emotional dependency on technology, and the ethics of designing companion AI for children — themes that give the film considerably more thematic density than its campy surface might suggest.Support Verbal DioramaLoved this episode?

The studio is a little less organized and a lot more chaotic tonight! With Intern Manager/Managing Intern Amy taking a well-deserved night off, the Dastardly Dudes—Hosts Eddie and Spencer—are rolling solo. This week, the boys are venturing into the Blumhouse vaults to tackle a horror flick that has left them scratching their heads in the best, and most confusing, way possible: Lee Cronin's The Mummy. Before the guys start deciphering hieroglyphics, they sift through the glorious, trailer-filled aftermath of last week's CinemaCon. With the floodgates officially open, Eddie and Spencer break down the newly dropped footage that has them the most hyped. They prepare for midnight margaritas with the reveal of Practical Magic 2 and celebrate the absolute cinematic justice of finally seeing footage for the infamous, long-vaulted Coyote vs. Acme. Once the trailer hype settles, the dudes descend into the tomb to review The Mummy. But there is one massive, glaring problem: is this actually a mummy movie? Eddie and Spencer unpack the bizarre identity crisis of a film that boasts a rock-solid narrative, genuinely fantastic practical effects, and incredibly strong performances from its child actors, yet feels entirely disconnected from its own name. The crew postulates how a movie can be this good, yet have its title hang around its neck like a giant, cursed albatross, skewing all expectations. Is it a hidden horror gem, or just a victim of terrible branding? Grab your flashlights and leave your Book of the Dead at home—it's time to get confused!
