'Obsession': $750K Film Becomes Box Office Phenomenon

The breakout horror film "Obsession" has achieved remarkable financial success, surpassing $400 million in global box office earnings. This unprecedented achievement is particularly noteworthy as the film was produced on a minimal budget of $750,000, officially making it the highest-grossing movie ever made for under $1 million. "Obsession" has demonstrated sustained audience interest, holding its theatrical run for eight consecutive weeks with continually growing box office returns.

Due to its extraordinary performance and continued draw, Focus Features announced that "Obsession" will be available for streaming on Peacock starting July 17. This decision comes just 63 days after its initial May 15 theatrical release in U.S. cinemas. The film stars Michael Johnston as Baron "Bear" Bailey, whose unrequited feelings for his co-worker Nikki Freeman, played by Inde Navarrette, lead to her becoming dangerously fixated on him after a wish is made.
