Obsessed

About This Movie

Obsessed (1997) is a curious piece of psychological thriller that dives into the darker side of obsession. The plot centers around a strikingly intelligent and beautiful seventeen-year-old, who, despite her allure, finds herself isolated. It's an interesting exploration of desire and fear where the atmosphere is thick with tension. The pacing has this deliberate crawl, almost suffocating at times, allowing the themes of loneliness and longing to really resonate. Performances are pretty compelling, especially given the age of the cast; they convey a haunting quality that lingers. Notably, the practical effects add a layer of realism that enhances the overall experience. It’s a film that sticks with you, like an itch you can't quite scratch.
