So, 'Deadly Obsession' from 2012 is, well, a bit of a mixed bag. The film dives into the dark psyche of a serial killer who really knows how to create a tense atmosphere, often feeling oppressive and grim. The pacing is pretty relentless, which can be both a strength and a weakness depending on how you look at it. The practical effects, though not groundbreaking, do have a certain rawness that lends an unsettling quality to the torture scenes. The performances are a bit uneven, but the girl who escapes does convey a sense of trauma that feels genuine. It's interesting how the mother undermines her daughter’s story, adding layers to the horror experience. Not your average slasher flick, that's for sure.
