Obsession 2026

Obsession (2025/2026) is a dark horror film about Bear (Michael Johnston), an awkward guy who buys a supernatural "One Wish Willow". He uses it to wish his crush, Nikki (Inde Navarrette), will love him above all else. While she falls for him, her devotion quickly warps into a violent, horrifying trap. [1, 2, 3, 4]

The Core Premise

In a classic "be careful what you wish for" trope, Bear's unrequited love drives him to snap the One Wish Willow and demand that Nikki love him "more than anyone else in the world". The wish works instantly, but it fundamentally strips Nikki of her agency, reducing her to an empty, erratic vessel who is essentially trapped in her own body. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

A Story of Coercive Control

As the narrative unfolds, the film shifts from a twisted romance into a study of toxic entitlement. Rather than righting the wrong when he realizes Nikki is trapped and suffering, Bear prioritizes his wounded ego and forces her.
