The setup of the new film Obsession is a familiar one, but hear me out.
Yes, guy makes a wish, wish comes true, things go bad.
But what sets this twisted little movie apart is just how bad things go.
Much of that badness is rooted not in special effects,
but in the astonishing, terrifying performance of its lead actress,
who is playing a woman so desperately in love that she becomes a danger to, well, pretty much everything.

Hey, Jordan.
So glad to be back on our summer kickoff horror run that we're on right now.
Yeah, it's a theme.
Also with us is Monica Castillo, film critic for the A.V. Club.
Welcome back, Monica.
So thrilled to be here for this one and many more spooky, scary movies.
We're running it back with this trio.
The gangs.
