Obsession is a 2025 American supernatural horror film written, directed, and edited by Curry Barker. The film follows Bear (Michael Johnston), a music store employee who buys a supernatural toy that grants his wish for his friend Nikki (Inde Navarrette) to fall in love with him, resulting in horrific consequences. Cooper Tomlinson, Megan Lawless, and Andy Richter appear in supporting roles.
A YouTube sketch comedian, Barker uploaded his short horror film The Chair to his channel in 2023, which led to an offer from producer James Harris to adapt it into a feature film. Barker took the opportunity to pitch Obsession, a different film idea partly inspired by The Simpsons episode "Treehouse of Horror II". The film was shot in Los Angeles in October 2024 for $750,000. It is Barker's second feature-length film, after Milk & Serial (2024), and his first to be released in theaters.
Obsession premiered on September 5, 2025, at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF), where Focus Features acquired the distribution rights for $14–$15 million, the highest price commanded by a genre film in TIFF history, and Jason Blum came on board as an executive producer under Blumhouse Productions. The film was theatrically released in the United States on May 15, 2026. A critical and commercial success, as of July 12, 2026, it has grossed $428 million worldwide, setting multiple box-office records including the seventh-highest-grossing film of 2026.
