Focus Features has released the trailer for Obsession, a romance horror film directed by Curry Barker, which explores themes of desire and control. The story follows Bear, played by Michael Johnston, who uses a magical "One Wish Willow" stick to win over his crush Nikki, portrayed by Inde Navarrette, leading to dark consequences as she becomes obsessively attached. The film has garnered acclaim at festivals and is set for a U.S. theatrical release on May 15, 2026. Barker’s work serves as a metaphor for the dangers of objectification in romantic relationships.
