Digital release dates confirmed
Following weeks of rumors, Obsession will be released on premium video-on-demand services on June 30, which will let viewers rent and buy the film from the comfort of their own homes. The movie has not yet been confirmed to get into the Peacock, but according to Hindustan Times, the movie may eventually be available on the platform, yet it hasn't announced a timetable.
Horror phenomenon against all odds
Obsession is one of the most interesting films to come out of the box this year, and the film was directed by Curry Barker on a budget of less than $1 million. It more than lived up to expectations as the supernatural horror film won great praise in word-of-mouth and proved to be steady week in week out of profits.
Michael Johnston and Inde Navarrette are the film stars, and it's about Bear, a young guy that uses a weird magical thing to make his best friend fall in love with him. A romance and a nightmare take a turn for the worse when Nikki's love turns into a deadly obsession.
Why was it not released earlier?
The film was originally stated to be available in digital media a lot sooner. But it has unexpectedly been a hit at the theatre and the distributor Focus Features extended its run in cinemas.
A plan for streaming has yet to be determined.
Viewers will soon be able to rent or purchase the film online via digital platforms, but the details of the film's subscription streaming debut are still unknown. Production experts predict Obsession will eventually be available on Peacock, before eventually being released on other platforms as part of Universal's distribution deals. But no official word has been released yet.
But for the moment, fans who are hoping to catch one of the most buzzed-about horror movies of the year can set their calendars for June 30.
