THE INTERNATIONAL HORROR & SCI-FI FILM FESTIVAL KICKS OFF OPENING NIGHT WITH HORROR HIT OBSESSION

The International Horror & Sci-Fi Film Festival has announced the Focus Features' TIFF and SXSW hit OBSESSION to kick off its opening night on Friday, April 10th. Already being called “the most disturbing indie film of the year”, OBSESSION arrives with serious buzz, and a warning...be careful who you wish for.

The unsettling new feature film from director Curry Barker, stars Michael Johnston, Inde Navarrette, Cooper Tomlinson, Megan Lawless, and Andy Richter.

In OBSESSION, after breaking the mysterious “One Wish Willow” to win his crush’s heart, a hopeless romantic finds himself getting exactly what he asked for but soon discovers that some desires come at a dark, sinister price.

Blending supernatural intrigue with psychological horror, the film descends into a chilling nightmare where desire and obsession collide.

The full trailer for OBSESSION is already making waves, with the kind of gory, skin-crawling energy horror fans crave. Check out the trailer: https://youtu.be/TaaDkbG3I7g
