I think I need to express to y'all just how scary Obsession is. There are few horror films that have truly scared, not even all of my all time favourite horror films have rattled me. The horror movies of last year that I saw in the cinema, Sinners, Weapons, The Long Walk, 28 Years Later, are all great movies that I really enjoyed. They kept me on edge and even really unsettled me, but none of them really struck terror into heart.
Obsession struck terror into my heart. It grabbed me by the throat and refused to let go 'til credits roll. The atmosphere is thick with intense dread that leaves you unsettled and uncomfortable the moment the One Wish Willow is broken.
But of course the real reason this film rattled me so much is Inde Navarette. God she's so absolutely incredible, giving what may be one of the best female performances in a horror movie. Her unpredictability and sheer intensity makes her a terrifying force to reckoned with. The way she sometimes moves like a stop motion character adds to the unsettling nature of her. The moments where the real Nikki is able to break out just makes the whole thing all the more horrifying. There are so many intensly scary scenes but I think the standout is the bedroom scene, it haunts me so much. Inde better get all the awards recognition, the whole movie should but her in particular because she puts her all and then some into this. Absolutely phenomenal performance in an absolutely incredible film.
In truth the real scariest part of the film was everything that Bear did. Fucking bastard, fuck him
