Box office smash horror films. Sarah Watt, Jeremy Downing and William Chen discuss Backrooms (2026) and Obsession (2026), but in two separate conversations. Jeremy and William discuss Backrooms, directed by Kane Parsons, and then Jeremy and Sarah discuss Obsession, directed by Curry Barker. The Backrooms conversation starts with the box office impact of the film and how it potentially is shifting the industry model for investing in films. We unpack the psychology of the horror in the film, especially when considering the realities of Gen Z and what horror looks like in a post-Millennial world. We talk about the brilliant performances from Chiwetel Ejiofor and Renate Reinsve, as are the physical sets in the film. We discuss the structure of the film and where the films works and where it is weak. We connect the film to the work of David Lynch, Alfred Hitchcock and Stanley Kubrick. Sarah swaps out with William, and chats with Jeremy about Obsession. Our conversation begins by praising the performance actor Inde Navarrette and later in the episode Michael Johnston. We talk about the strength of the narrative and how we can relate the situation amidst the horror. Our discussion focuses on the ending and the poetic justice, as well as the strength of the writing. We make connections to Weapons (2025), Romeo and Juliet (roughly 1597), Heated Rivalry (2025-), Fatal Attraction (1987), and the work of David Fincher and David Lynch (again). We finish the conversation by highlighting how much the film connected with our own lives.

Written, directed, and edited by Curry Barker, Obsession is the supernatural horror film starring Michael Johnston and Inde Navarrette. After breaking the mysterious "One Wish Willow" to win his crush's heart, a hopeless romantic finds himself getting exactly what he asked for but soon discovers that some desires come at a dark, sinister price. We break down all things making the most out of a small budget, uncomfortable performances, and wish scenario ethics.

This week on The Movie Power Hour, we're diving into everyone's favorite film, Obsession! It's rare to see a movie make such a massive cultural impact, and it feels like you can't go anywhere without hearing people talk about it. We owe so much of that to 26-year-old creator Curry Barker and his incredible cast. Inde Navarrette delivers a truly unforgettable performance, and Michael Johnston is fantastic as well. Tune in to hear what the boys think of the film!

We have officially reached the penultimate film of our 2026 Summer Blockbusters lineup with the absolute biggest, wildest surprise smash hit of the entire year: Curry Barker's independent supernatural horror phenomenon, Obsession. Made on a micro-budget, this movie completely took over the box office, shattered all expectations, and left audiences absolutely stunned.To help handle the intense psychological discomfort of this modern cautionary tale, Mackenzie cooked up this week's custom cocktail - none other than The One Wish Willow - a smoky mezcal paired with blood colored berries to go with the gore.This week, we dive headfirst into the terrifying world of the One Wish Willow. We analyze Michael Johnston's performance as Bear, the music store employee who uses a mysterious novelty item to make his crush fall in love with him, and we absolutely gush over Inde Navarrette's star-making, powerhouse performance as Nikki. We break down the unsettling way the film balances pitch-black comedy with genuine dread, highlighting those deeply eerie, shadow-draped scenes that force you to scan the corners of the screen. We also debate the film's brilliant take on the "nice guy" trope, looking at how Bear becomes the true villain of his own story by stripping away Nikki's freedom just to satisfy his own ego. It is a tense, jaw-dropping, and deeply thought-provoking discussion that will make you rethink your dating life.If you want to hear us break down the exact moment this movie shifts from an awkward romantic comedy into a full-blown nightmare, this is the grand finale you cannot miss. We are blending our awe for a fresh new voice in horror with our usual banter to bring our summer blockbuster marathon to a triumphant, spine-chilling close.This episode VIDEO is live on YouTube AND Spotify!Follow us on Instagram to get ep sneak peaks and find out what's coming up.

This week, Tommy is joined by actor Michael Johnston who plays Bear in Obsession, one of the biggest break-out movie of the year. Directed by Curry Barker, the film centers on Bear who uses a supernatural "One Wish Willow" to make his crush (played by Inde Navarrette) fall in love with him, only to trigger a deadly, twisted obsession. Today, Michael opens up about the moment his heartbeat was heard pounding on the mic during a particular scene, how he practiced self-care during such an intense shoot, the moment he thinks Bear realized something was wrong after he broke the One Wish Willow, the moments Inde’s performance genuinely scared him, why he can’t judge Bear as an actor even though he knows he’s a villain, whether Nikki ever truly loved Bear, the scene(s) he and Inde kept breaking in (due to lots of laughter), the alternate ending that was filmed, his pitch for the sequel and whether he wants to be in it, what acting has taught him about himself, why he wants to play a powerful gay character in an upcoming project, whether we can expect new music, why Teen Wolf will forever be meaningful to him, and so much more.

Ich war neugierig auf einen Film, der mit einem überschaubaren Budget einen so großen Erfolg an den Kinokassen hat. Dabei ist er auf den ersten Blick ein eher konventioneller Film: Ein junger Mann traut sich nicht, einer jungen Frau zu sagen, dass er in sie verliebt ist. Aber er hat einen Wunsch frei und so wird die junge Frau mit dem Fluch belegt, ihn mehr als alles andere zu lieben. Das geht auf grausame Weise schief.Das Besondere: Der junge Mann ist nicht nur völlig außerstande offen seine Liebe zu gestehen – nach dem Wunsch versagt er wirklich in jedem Augenblick dabei mit der bedingungslosen Liebe von Nikki umzugehen. Er stürzt sie in Angst und brennende Eifersucht. Doch das ist nicht der eigentliche Grund ihrer Höllenqualen – das spoilere ich hier nicht.OBSESSION ist eine düstere, schräge Splatter-Komödie aber zugleich auch eine bitterböse Abrechnung mit einem Incel-artigen Mann. Die jüngeren Menschen im Kino (fast alles Pärchen) hatten einen leichteren Zugang zum Film. Ich war im Podcast mit Heidi direkt nach dem Film beeindruckt aber nicht begeistert. Aber der Film hallt durchaus nach – auch wegen der herausragenden Inde Navarrette als Nikki.

This is a spoiler-filled review and discussion of Obsession (2026), directed by Curry Barker and starring Inde Navarrette and Michael Johnston, covering the film's themes, performances, and ending. Obsession is finally on digital — and Inde Navarrette's performance as Nikki is going to haunt you. Brian and John are joined by returning guest Jordan the Grey Witch to break down Curry Barker's indie horror hit that's outgrossing studio tentpoles on a fraction of the budget — including why Bear might have the most punchable face in horror this year. We cover why this "nice guy" is actually the real monster of the movie, the wish-stick logic and how it compares to Monkey's Paw-style horror, our favorite "holy sh*t" scenes, how Obsession stacks up against Twilight Zone's "The Chaser" and Tales from the Crypt, and why original horror is quietly beating the box office right now. Plus: our Letterboxd reviews segment — including a trivia-night warning you need to hear. No spoiler-free zone here — full spoilers ahead once we get past the setup, so watch or listen to the movie first if you're avoiding them.

Is this the most unsettling and terrifying horror phenomenon of the decade?! Join Greg Alba and John Humphrey as they dive into their full reaction and movie review for Obsession (2026), the massive box-office sensation and viral psychological horror masterpiece from writer-director Curry Barker (Milk & Serial). In this video, we break down the insane twists, the escalating supernatural dread, and that absolutely haunting climax that everyone is talking about! When a fiercely lonely music store employee named Bear breaks a mysterious novelty toy known as the "One Wish Willow" to make his crush fall in love with him, he gets exactly what he asked for—but soon discovers that his deepest desires come with a dark, deeply sinister, and inescapable price. To help drive searchability and give credit to these unbelievable performances, here is the phenomenal cast behind the madness: Michael Johnston (Teen Wolf, The Orville) delivers a haunting performance as Baron "Bear" Bailey, the desperate romantic who triggers the nightmare. Inde Navarrette (Superman & Lois, 13 Reasons Why) is absolutely spellbinding as Nikki Freeman, capturing a terrifying, emotionally raw descent into a wish-induced nightmare. Cooper Tomlinson (Milk & Serial, that's a bad idea) stars as Ian, Bear's close friend who finds himself caught in the horrific crossfire. Megan Lawless (The Hate U Give) plays Sarah Harper, whose tragic arc leads to some of the film's most gruesome moments. Andy Richter (Elf, Conan) steps into a grounded role as Carter Harper, the music store boss. We dive deep into the movie's most iconic and viral sequences, including: The infamous Jenga drinking game bottle scene, where Nikki's unsettling behavior culminates in a shocking act of self-mutilation. The widely discussed scalp twist and the visceral body horror that caught audiences completely off guard. The heartbreaking, emotionally devastating final showdown and ending sequence that serves as a brilliant, terrifying allegory for autonomy and obsession. #Obsession #ObsessionMovie #Obsession2026 #HorrorMovie #MovieReaction #MovieReview #TheReelRejects #Blumhouse #CurryBarker #IndeNavarrette #MichaelJohnston #PsychologicalHorror #Thriller #OneWishWillow Obsession 2026 movie, Obsession movie reaction, Obsession full movie review, Obsession 2026 ending explained, Obsession bottle scene, Obsession Jenga scene, Curry Barker Obsession, Michael Johnston, Inde Navarrette, Greg Alba, John Humphrey, Reel Rejects Obsession, psychological horror movies 2026, Blumhouse Obsession reaction, scary movies 2026, One Wish Willow horror movie, shocking horror movie endings Intense Suspense by Audionautix is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/...

Despite the fact that it technically premiered last fall, Obsession (2025) is the hottest horror movie of the year — and it's also the official quarterly pick of our Patrons. The theatrical film debut of writer-director-editor Curry Barker, who got his start making shorts online, this flick captivated moviegoers from the first second it hit their screens. It's also inspired about a thousand memes and plenty of discourse about how the One Wish Willow works, when a hero becomes a villain, and when exactly that villain turn started. On a new Spooky Tuesday, we're joining the conversation as we talk newcomers and nepotism while namedropping stars like Inde Navarette, Michael Johnston, and of course papa Clive Barker himself.

Inde Navarrette's work in Obsession is shaping up to be the biggest breakout performance of 2026. Curry Barker's film kicked off its run at the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival where Focus Features was smart enough to act fast and scoop up the distribution rights. From there, buzz continued to build at Fantastic Fest 2025, the movie earned one rave review after the next at early screenings, and now the movie hits theaters nationwide with a significant amount of fanfare at its back.Obsession currently sits at a 94% on the Tomatometer, 95% on the Popcornmeter, has an A- CinemaScore, and is already being dubbed a modern horror classic. Yet another Obsession talking point that's gaining more and more traction? Navarrette delivers an awards-worthy performance in the film.Michael Johnston leads Obsession as Bear, a guy with a crush on a girl who doesn't share the same feelings. That girl is Navarrette's Nikki. In an effort to win her over, Bear buys Nikki a novelty gift to give when he confesses his true feelings for her. Trouble is, he doesn't have the courage to go through with it and, instead, uses the gift himself. He wishes that Nikki loves him more than anyone in the world and then snaps his One Wish Willow. Much to Bear's surprise, the Willow works and he gets the girl of his dreams. But, it comes at a cost.What exactly does the One Wish Willow do to Nikki? Navarrette herself broke it down on Collider Ladies Night! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

"Backrooms" and "Obsession" are the two surprise horror hits on their way to becoming two of the biggest movies of the summer and the year. What makes them so appealing to mass audiences? Will we look back on this as an inflection point in the interests of the modern movie-goer? Listen to this spoiler-filled deep dive to find out. Backrooms is written by Kane Parsons (20 years old) and written by Will Soodik, based on the YouTube web series by Parsons. It stars Chiwetel Ejiofor, Renate Reinsve, and Mark Duplass.Obsession is written and directed by Curry Barker and stars Michael Johnston, Inde Navarrette, and Cooper Tomlinson.0:00 - Intro6:07 - Backrooms54:07 - Obsession

A spoiler-heavy breakdown of Curry Barker's 2026 psychological thriller "Obsession," the indie horror movie everyone is about to be talking about. Friend of the podcast Chris Cheng is back for this one.⚠️ SPOILER WARNING: This is a full spoiler review. See the movie first.Our friend of the podcast Chris went to see the 2026 psychological thriller (it's also kinda horror too, right?). I have always known that Chris is not the kind of moviegoer to see something in the theater more than once. That was not the case with this instant classic helmed by Curry Barker. I still don't think he has come down from the high of experiencing this one of a kind movie. I was already excited and looking forward to seeing this movie, and when Chris heard that I was planning to see it in theaters, he said yes, you absolutely need to see it in theaters, and when you plan to go, let me know because I'm coming with you and seeing it again! That was the moment that I knew I was in for something different with this movie.... and what a movie it was!Where to begin with all the great things of this movie. First, it was made by independent filmmakers on a relatively low budget (somewhere between $750,000 to $1m). These filmmakers come from a short content and YouTube fanbase origins. This movie showcases their creativity in bringing stories to life and developing truly fascinating stories, characters, and themes that will be stuck in your head long after watching them."Obsession" is such a treat of a film in that it terrifies not just from the psychological thriller and horror elements (oh, it has plenty of those) but also from relatable, accurate, and very cringe awkward moments that are just all too familiar with all of us to some degree from the not so great relationships that we may have experienced.The cast in this movie is stellar, especially the leads of Michael Johnston as Bear and the out-of-this-world performance by the up-and-coming actor whose name you will definitely know soon, Inde Navarrette, the scene stealer who plays Nikki. There were so many great elements regarding the acting, directing, themes, and creativity of this movie that Chris was so impacted by this movie that he said we have to record a second session because our first session didn't cover enough. After seeing this movie, I couldn't possibly agree more. Listener, this is the movie to beat for 2026 so far. It will stay with you way long after you have seen it. I can't wait for you to check it out and let us know what you think."Obsession" is in theaters now. Do yourself a favor and see it in theaters first. It will be available for purchase on June 30th, but trust me, the theater for this movie will be a next level experience.We've got more episodes, reviews, and recommendations coming your way. If you're enjoying the show, please leave a review, it really helps the podcast.Thanks for listening, and enjoy the movie.

People are obsessed with the brand-new horror film Obsession. Directed by YouTuber-turned-filmmaker Curry Barker and starring Michael Johnston and Inde Navarrette, the movie tells the story of a young man who uses a mystical object known as a “One Wish Willow” to make his longtime crush fall in love with him, only to discover that some wishes come with terrifying consequences. The fictional One Wish Willow, from the mind of Curry Barker, has blurred the line between fantasy and reality. As part of the film's marketing campaign, replica One Wish Willows were sold online and quickly sold out, with many people jokingly, and in some cases seemingly seriously, hoping to use them to get their wishes granted. While some may be tongue-in-cheek, we live in a culture where manifesting, spell-casting, witchcraft, and other forms of modern magic have become increasingly mainstream. Millions openly seek supernatural power, guidance, and fulfillment outside of God. In this episode, we'll examine the growing fascination with magic and manifestation, and we'll show how celebrities such as Robert Downey Jr., Vanessa Hudgens, Megan Fox, Machine Gun Kelly, and others have openly discussed their involvement with witchcraft, ritual practices, spell work, manifestation, and other occult beliefs. We'll compare these practices with what Scripture teaches and expose the spiritual dangers hidden behind the culture's obsession with getting whatever it desires.

Obsession fever is sweeping the nation. Look at what you've done, Curry Barker! On the podcast this week, we had to dive into what's the talk of Horrortown these days—and with good reason. Inde Navarrette is a powerhouse in Obsession, and that's just the tip of the iceberg.

Obsession rules. It's the latest horror sensation to take over the box office and has the genre community abuzz with how good it is. So naturally we had to get two of the stars on the show to talk about their cool ass movie and their favorite Stephen King things.So, we're joined by Michael Johnston and Cooper Tomlinson and topics include their Stephen King origin stories, which King movie adaptations have influenced their work, and so much more. You will get talk about Stand By Me, The Shining, 11/22/63, Mike Flanagan, Pennywise, and even a little more Revival peer pressure from the Kingcast boys.Obsession is out now in a theater near you!

It's not exactly an Arthouse Tuesday, but it is a Tuesday here at Breakfast All Day. Here's what we've got for you on our latest episode: THE MANDALORIAN AND GROGU (NO Spoilers!). We had a lot of fun with this standalone "Mandalorian" movie, a big-screen version of the Disney+ series. (We recapped all three seasons, in case you'd like to revisit the show with us at our Patreon; these videos are also available for individual purchase for our free members, as is the whole collection.) Pedro Pascal returns as the stoic bounty hunter, alongside his gifted, green sidekick, Grogu. They go on adventures across the galaxy. Summer is here! In theaters Friday. OBSESSION. So many of you asked us to review this, so of course we had to do just that, even though Alonso is admittedly a chicken about horror movies. We both dug this one though, from YouTuber-turned-filmmaker Curry Barker. A meek guy (Michael Johnston) is too afraid to tell the girl of his dreams (a tremendous Inde Navarrette) that he's interested in her, so he buys a novelty item and makes a wish for her to fall in love with him instead. Things do not go as planned. In theaters now. Mark your calendars for Noon Pacific on Friday, May 22, when we'll be back with Movie News LIVE! at our YouTube channel. And join us again at Noon Pacific on Tuesday, May 26, when we'll do a LIVE spoiler chat about "The Mandalorian and Grogu." See you then!

For this week's main podcast review, Josh Parham, Giovanni Lago, Larry Fried, and Ben Langford join me to review and discuss Curry Barker's "Obsession" starring Michael Johnston, Inde Navarrette, Cooper Tomlinson, Megan Lawless, and Andy Richter. The story follows a young hopeless romantic who breaks the mysterious "One Wish Willow" to win his crush's heart. However, he soon discovers that some desires come at a dark and sinister price.

The new film Obsession has a familiar setup: A guy makes a wish, wish comes true, and things go bad. But what sets this twisted little movie apart is how bad things go, and the astonishing, terrifying performance of its lead actress, Inde Navarrette. Written and directed by Curry Barker, the film follows a schlubby music store employee (Michael Johnston) who's in love with his coworker (Navarrette) and makes a wish on a cheap magic gag gift for her to love him. That love soon proves to be the kind that's jealous, all-consuming and comes with a body count.Follow Pop Culture Happy Hour on Letterboxd at letterboxd.com/nprpopcultureListen to our episode about Margo's Got Money TroublesSubscribe to Pop Culture Happy Hour Plus at plus.npr.org/happyhour See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.NPR Privacy Policy
