Curry Barker’s Obsession completely caught us off guard. This is easily one of our favorite horror films of the year and one of the most intense indie horror experiences we’ve had in a long time.
From the unpredictable jump scares, disturbing atmosphere, incredible sound design, and raw emotional tension, this movie kept us uncomfortable from beginning to end. Curry Barker delivers insanely confident filmmaking for a first feature, blending modern loneliness and toxic relationships with old-school horror filmmaking.
Inde Navarrette gives an unforgettable performance as Nikki — shifting from vulnerable and sweet to terrifying and deeply unsettling in seconds. Her performance genuinely got under our skin.
In this review, we break down: • The disturbing relationship dynamics • Why the jump scares work so well • The incredible sound design • Nikki’s terrifying performance • Curry Barker’s direction and future in horror • Why this film feels fresh compared to modern horror
If you love psychological horror, relationship horror, uncomfortable tension, and unpredictable indie films, this is one you need to see.
