“Obsession” is a movie that at first seems like a mild-mannered version of “The Twilight Zone”. It quickly goes in a very dark and disturbing manner into ‘The Diabolical Zone’. A silly novelty item is used to grant a wish, and the results start to invade the story like a deadly plague. Let the buyer beware! Read more
