Be careful what you wish for.
This year’s most popular horror film, Obsession, is now available to watch in your own living room, if you dare. The freaky film by YouTuber Curry Barker, starring Michael Johnston, Inde Navarrette, Cooper Tomlinson, Megan Lawless and Andy Richter, premiered in theaters on May 15 and has already surpassed the $400 million milestone at the global box office.

As of today, July 17, you can watch it on Peacock.
The film, which is Barker’s second, is a contemporary reworking of W. W. Jacobs’s The Monkey’s Paw, about a mysterious “One Wish Willow” device that Baron “Bear” Bailey (Michael Johnston), a music store employee, uses to win the affections of his crush, Nikki (Inde Navarrette). He gets what he wants… but quickly realizes the error of his ways when the device unleashes dangerous consequences, introduces gender dynamics and a scary, one-sided romance.
The film is executive produced by Jason Blum (Blumhouse Productions), as well as Leonora Darby (Tea Shop Productions), Mark Lane (Tea Shop Productions), David Haring (Capstone Pictures) and Ruzanna Kegeyan (Capstone Pictures).
