When will Obsession get a digital release?

A couple of years ago, Curry Barker wrote, directed, and starred in the found footage horror movie Milk & Serial, which is said to have had a budget of $800. Baker then released the movie through YouTube, where the free-to-watch video has racked up more than 3 million views. Even though he already made Milk & Serial, it’s his new horror movie, Obsession, that has been billed as his feature directorial debut – and it has turned out to be a massive box office success. Surpassing $220 million at the domestic box office and another $117 million internationally, Obsession is now the most successful festival acquisition ever – and soon, horror fans will be able to watch it at home. Obsession is reportedly set to receive a VOD and digital release on Tuesday, June 30th.

What is Obsession about?

Starring Michael Johnston and Inde Navarrette, Obsession is a story about a hopeless romantic who makes a wish that his long-time crush falls in love with him. A sinister enchantment ensues. Here’s the official synopsis: 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. Cooper Tomlinson, Megan Lawless, and Andy Richter are also in the cast.

James Harris of Teashop Productions produced the film with Haley Nicole Johnson of Under the Shell, Christian Mercuri of Capstone Pictures, and Roman Viaris. Blum’s fellow executive producers are Leonora Darby (Teashop), Mark Lane (Teashop), David Haring (Capstone), and Ruzanna Kegeyan (Capstone Pictures).

Barker has already made another feature, he’s in post-production on a project called Anything but Ghosts, and has lined up a couple more projects: he’ll be making an original horror film for Blumhouse, Atomic Monster, and Universal, and he has been hired to write and direct a reboot of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. It looks like he’ll be making the Blumhouse movie before he gets around to working with Leatherface.
