This week on HTGS Reviews, Dave and Rob review the latest horror movie Obsession! This is a spoiler filled review ... and the movie is brand new, so you have been warned! The film follows an awkward, hopeless romantic named Bear (Michael Johnston) who has an unspoken crush on his coworker, Nikki (Inde Navarrette). Instead of asking her out, Bear buys a novelty "One Wish Willow" at a charm shop and snaps it, wishing that Nikki would love him more than anyone on Earth. The wish works, but it turns Nikki's sweet demeanor into a terrifying, possessive, and obsessive state.
