'Obsession', Box Office Surprises, and the Future of Horror
This week, I’m diving into the unexpected breakout success of Obsession—and why this low-budget horror film is kind of a big deal for the industry.I’m not doing a traditional review here, but looking at the bigger picture: how a $750K movie pulled in major box office numbers, scored rare audience acclaim for a horror, and what that says about where Hollywood might be heading. From layered storytelling and standout performances to the genre’s role as a creative playground, there’s a lot to unpack.I also get into why horror continues to thrive, the rise of new talent, and why this summer could be huge for the genre.Plus: a quick detour into why going to the cinema still hits different—and of course, Songs of the Week to close things out.You can follow me on Instagram and Threads @robscal.jpg, on TikTok @robscal.com and on Twitter @robscaltweets🛒 Molly Bz - Unforgettable artisan-crafted cookies💰 Get 10% OFF | Promo Code: OVERSHAREPAMPHLEThttps://promocode.to/molly-bz/oversharepamphlet-tr2
