The movie ‘Obsession’ is continuing its long-term success, surpassing 849,000 cumulative viewers. According to media reports, this work is maintaining the highest box office record among restricted-rated films this year. Audience reactions and the performance of lead actress Inde Navarrette are supporting the word-of-mouth.

‘Obsession’ is a horror film that depicts a terrible love occurring between a man and a woman who become lovers on the same night after making a wish to the 'One Wish Willow' stick that grants any wish. Since its release, it has been steadily adding viewers, and interest in the work continues as reviews regarding the horror experienced in theaters spread online.

Audience reviews introduced in media reports include, “It wasn't just once or twice that I almost died instantly from a heart attack,” and “No matter how many ghost, gore, or horror movies I watch, I've never screamed, but I screamed in the theater.” One viewer stated, “In my 23 years of life, I have watched many movies, but this is the scariest, and for the first time, I thought I wanted the movie to end quickly.”

At the center of the horror is the performance of lead actress Inde Navarrette. She is evaluated to have heightened tension by extensively utilizing her facial expressions and facial muscles in scenes where emotions change rapidly. Audiences left reactions such as, “Was it possible to move facial muscles this freely?”, “The rapid changes were so natural and fluid that I didn't even notice. ‘Obsession’ is indeed an acting feat by Inde,” and “The female lead's acting skills seem crazy.”

The fact that there are elements to check while watching the movie again is also leading to repeat viewings. Recently, an interview with director Curry Barker with foreign media and behind-the-scenes videos of the low-budget production filmed by the actors and staff were released. Following this, interest from viewers seeking to re-examine the easter eggs and the meanings contained in the scenes within the movie continues.
