60 of 159 · most liked firstQuick little essay about the disgusting use of Nikki from Obsession in Fortnite. The fact alone that the bottle she uses to self-harm and tries to die by suicide in the film is now a weapon she uses to harm others is disgusting... www.patreon.com/jessiegender...
negative · AI labelView post →Silly to treat Digger, of all movies, as the great test case. the last chance for audiences to prove that they will embrace an original movie not based on existing IP. I guess Sinners and Weapons and Marty Supreme and Obsession never happened. It's fine for a movie to be a divisive flop. It happens!
neutral · AI labelView post →Obsession is a good movie that unfortunately was made for an audience with zero media literacy in a genre that thrives on making iconic killers.
positive · AI labelView post →Look, this is extremely stupid, but I also can't pretend that I honestly....care? At all? Obsession remains a fantastic film. This is just other companies capitalizing on that. Fortnite doing this is no worse than Space Jam 2 having the nuns from The Devils in it.
positive · AI labelView post →A lot of talk about Obsession and the reaction to it being in other stuff like Halloween Horror Night or even as a movie make it seem like it's the first time people have ever seen a horror movie that wasn't a slasher
neutral · AI labelView post →Obsession was an indie movie meaning Currie Barker like fully owns the rights and fully sold out his art to this shit right? Like he created a wonderfully harrowing movie about free will and control and then said, "Yeah sure fuck it. Nikki's the villain. Put the SA victim in Fortnite." Shameful.
negative · AI labelView post →why are "Nikki from the 2026 horror film Obsession" and "Pomni With Child Bearing Hips" in the same goddamn video game
neutral · AI labelView post →New at Indiewire: I write (spoiler-free!) about your latest favourite Australian horror film, THE ONLY ONE. A love letter to the late Jamie Blanks' teen slashers that asks 'what if Obsession was a slasher-comedy from the woman's perspective'. Heart/smarts courtesey of co-writer @martynpedler.com
neutral · AI labelView post →There is something to be said about the commodification of horror movies since theyve become more mainstream and how they almost always need some sort of recognizable image to be "THE NEW ICON" and Obsession as a film doesn't really work for that sort of thing on multiple levels but idk
neutral · AI labelView post →So I watched Obsession What the fuck is wrong with yall for putting her in fortnite. What the fuck is wrong with yall for makin jokes about this shit. That was so deeply horrific and disgusting to watch. Very solid horror film. Men, be better.
positive · AI labelView post →i have something to say about Obsession that a lot of people won't like but here goes... hypothetically, yes, this is tasteless given the premise of this film. but also, a lot about this film is also rather tasteless given its premise, imo. it also has a weird fandom of Bears for this reason.
neutral · AI labelView post →The commercialization of Obsession has been so dissonant with the movie man. Like what the fuck is Nikki doing in Fortnite bro
neutral · AI labelView post →Obsession was SUCH a good movie, so I drew Morgan dressed as Nikki for Halloween
positive · AI labelView post →Obsession feels like the first movie that belongs to Gen Z and not to me at all. I can't even be bothered to get worked up about the discourse around Nikki; make her a generic movie monster/pop culture figure, I'm 41, I don't care. I just want to monologue at my bored wife about In A Violent Nature.
neutral · AI labelView post →I enjoyed Obsession but the message of that movie is no deeper than “dude if you think about it, if a hot girl was actually literally obsessed with you, that would suck.” Nikki is a silly character like Freddy or Chucky. Fortnite is a fine place for her
positive · AI labelView post →I'm going to leave this right here, because as someone who's watched and read many interviews with the filmmakers behind Obsession there's this weird disconnect between them and discourse around the movie. They absolutely wanted Freaky Nikki to be a horror icon, and I believe they succeeded. 🤷
neutral · AI labelView post →When I saw the film “Obsession,” I thought, it’s OK, but why can I not personally kill the character “Nikki” with a gun? Luckily the noble “video game industry” is here to save the day
negative · AI labelView post →Never touched Fortnite, never will. Reasons not to: •All in now on AI •Harry Potter collaboration •Making a horror movie rape victim (Nikki from Obsession) into a character ignoring the entire point of the film of stripping women of their autonomy
negative · AI labelView post →I think both can be true. Obsession is both a well made, resonant movie, and one whose victim ironically doesn’t have much say in the narrative resulting in many reading it incorrectly, which can be criticized. I feel like Kenny Rockwell in Digger, “YOU’RE BOTH RIGHT!”
neutral · AI labelView post →Obsession is similar to Ex Machina where its a great movie in everything that makes a movie good but also maybe we shouldnt let men make movies about misogyny but it serves as a good litmus test for guys by asking them who the villain in the movie is and then u know if u can be alone with them
positive · AI labelView post →fair but this post isn't really about the fandom, it's about the film. tbh i see Obsession as distinct from something like Fight Club or American Psycho because those have much clearer framing, themes, etc. imo, Obsession contains many more mixed messages about gender, misogyny, & sexual assault.
neutral · AI labelView post →every day my opinion of Obsession grows dimmer. it's, like. fine. but the fact that it outperformed Backrooms certainly isn't because it's a better movie.
negative · AI labelView post →Share a SCARY movie title that begins with the letter “O” 🎥 O is for… Obsession 🖤
neutral · AI labelView post →(This thought brought to you by the news that you can now stand in a Toy Story world shooting Sabrina Carpenter with a Megaman blaster while playing as that one woman from the Obsession horror movie.)
neutral · AI labelView post →Watched Obsession finally. I appreciated the acting, and the premise/world built around the One Wish Willow, but I don’t know if I liked the movie. I would’ve loved a movie where the main character was actually trying to figure out how to stop the wish. That customer call part was so intriguing.
neutral · AI labelView post →Just gonna say that when I was watching Obsession in the theater it was very clear that the audience wasn't watching a movie about SA they were watching a movie about a crazy girlfriend, unfortunately can't really escape misogyny if the misogyny is in the medium.
neutral · AI labelView post →And i dont EVEN LIKE OBSESSION THAT MUCH i think the movie shrinks away from ever really making the audience sit with what its saying but also this is real ghoulish
negative · AI labelView post →OBSESSION ain't beating the 'Baby's 1st Horror Movie' rep anytime soon
negative · AI labelView post →What’s a horror movie scene that genuinely terrified you and still lives rent-free in your head years later? For me… Nikki from Obsession 😬🖤
positive · AI labelView post →Obsession becomes the funniest movie ever the third watch through.
positive · AI labelView post →Am I the only person who watched Obsession and thought rape culture was the monster? Why do so many people seem to think Nikki is the scary part of that film? Every take I see on it makes me feel like I watched something different
positive · AI labelView post →Realizing the dissonance between the merchandising/fandom around Obsession and the actual body of the film is basically exactly what Camp Miasma was saying has given me a lot more respect for Miasma than I already had
positive · AI labelView post →the constant moral posturing people do about Obsession has made me kind of hate the movie I can't even lie lmao, why is it seemingly everyone's first movie with disturbing themes & the one people who don't even like horror seem to orbit so much?
negative · AI labelView post →The message of Obsession was “dude it would suck if a girl was like actually obsessed with you. Think about it” (I liked the movie too lol)
positive · AI labelView post →It’s probably unfair to hold discourse against a movie, but one of the reasons I dislike OBSESSION is how bad the takes it keeps spawning are
negative · AI labelView post →Obsession really is the first horror movie some people ever watched huh
neutral · AI labelView post →one day... we'll have a discussion about the cultural response to the movie "Obsession"
neutral · AI labelView post →You know I feel like Obsession is starting to become a modern-day equivalent of the movie Rambo. For context the original Rambo movie was a message about how people who participated in wars, had those said wars destroy their mental health.
neutral · AI labelView post →Been puzzling today why some film bros are so angry about the popularity of Obsession, a film that, for me, is as good as the classic horror of the 70s and 80s. It's just dawned on me why: it's bc a key theme of the film is the precarity of gen-z life, a reality they would prefer not to accept
positive · AI labelView post →Hot take: everybody’s takes on Obsession are bad because they treat a monkey’s paw movie like a monster movie.
neutral · AI labelView post →Doing a double feature tonight with Obsession and Frankenhooker That seems more respectful to that movie than putting Nikki in Fortnite
neutral · AI labelView post →FWIW, I think OBSESSION has taken on a weird life of its own outside of the movie. The movie is very overtly a condemnation of the male character, but the conversations surrounding it are... bleh.
neutral · AI labelView post →My daughter made me watch Obsession with her and I am not disappointed. What a superb little horror film!
positive · AI labelView post →Sunday night Movie night with my discord fam has been a blast 💜 Currently watching Obsession
neutral · AI labelView post →It's so fucking wild seeing people get genuinely outraged over them putting Nikki Obsession in Fortnite. You really think they're not gonna capitalize on one of the biggest horror movies of the year by putting the face of said horror movie in the biggest advertising platform of the 21st century?
neutral · AI labelView post →New episode! 🚀 Jeffrey Morris returns to talk about his new film "Beyond The Eagle Obsession" — a beautiful tribute to Space: 1999 fandom. This one's got heart. Listen now! #SciFi #Space1999 podcasters.spotify.com/pod/...
neutral · AI labelView post →Here’s Nikki from Obsession. ❤️✨ Btw, This is a reference from the Movie.
neutral · AI labelView post →Obsession coming to Netflix is not news at all because it is a movie easily watchable anywhere. Kubi releasing on Netflix IS NEWS HOWEVER because this is the first time the movie is releasing outside of Japan.
neutral · AI labelView post →I've read some baffling new opinions on Obsession in the wake of the Fortnite discourse, but "Curry purposefully made a chud film because Bear was the protagonist and was sympathetic at times" is a new height of reaching.
neutral · AI labelView post →People do still know Obsession is a horror movie, right?
neutral · AI labelView post →There are so many tattoo artists near me doing flash sheets of Obsession, specifically of Nikki, and I'm like, did we watch the same movie??
neutral · AI labelView post →Finally watched Obsession. Since everyone and their grandmother has an opinion on this movie, thats all I'm going to say
neutral · AI labelView post →There's a "careful what you wish for" table at @chaptersbookstore.bsky.social inspired by the film Obsession. A great idea!
neutral · AI labelView post →Inktober day 22 - Nikki from the film "Obsession". I really enjoyed the movie and thought @indenavarrette.bsky.social was incredible in it. She is every bit as good as I'd heard. Brilliant performance. #inktober #horror
positive · AI labelView post →Watched the movie Obsession. It was well made but unpleasant to the point where I need to wonder if the film was an intentional try at a heightened metaphor for taking advantage of someone with severe mental health disorders. (The more obvious sexual coercion theme was also not lost on me.)
neutral · AI labelView post →I am once again begging people who liked Obsession to watch any other horror movie. For the love of god it's not uncommon for the victim to become a beloved horror icon.
neutral · AI labelView post →seeing any discussion of the movie "Obsession" is like willingly stepping into a tub filled with lava, lego bricks, used syringes and napalm
neutral · AI labelView post →the villain of Obsession is the toy. it's not Bear. the toy turns Nikki into a movie monster. Bear being villainized by fans for making a childish wish and not immediately picking up that Nikki has been possessed is a really silly reading. the film is very sympathetic to Bear
neutral · AI labelView post →Buddy was a fun movie. Definitely not Obsession or Backrooms level but it was a really fun addition to the horror roster this year.
