Something happens to interesting directors when the industry gets involved. Curry Barker’s first studio-backed outing feels cautious where it should be bold, familiar where it should surprise.
“Careful what you wish for” has been done before and done better, and Obsession doesn’t add enough to the pile. Bigger budget, smaller imagination — the old horror bargain, apparently.
Still: there’s one jump scare of genuine, giddy brilliance, and Inde Navarrette is the only one who looks like she knows exactly what film she’s in. After the lean freshness of Milk & Serial, this disappoints. Not without its moments — just not quite enough to make the obsession mutual.
I didn't enjoy this at all .Fairly typical of a lot of modern day films in that it's not very good .Quite unpleasant ,fairly disturbing and not engrossing.
