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.
