Stream On This Week: This Year’s Box Office “Obsession,” The Man Burns, and Sam Neill Remembered

Consequence · 3 hours ago

This week's streaming guide spotlights Obsession, a horror film that has become an unexpected commercial success. Directed by Curry Barker and featuring actor Inde Navarrette in a central role, the film explores a familiar romantic fantasy conceit—a man's wish for a woman's affection materialises—before descending into nightmarish territory. The low-budget production has earned praise for its craft and performances, though viewers should be aware it contains a disturbing sequence involving a deceased animal.

The guide also recommends Connor Ratliff's comedy special, an unconventional performance filmed at the UCB Theater that positions itself as an elaborate comedic audition directed toward filmmaker Steven Spielberg. Ratliff, a comedian and actor whose recent television credits include Ghosts and Last Week Tonight, constructs an hour of material around this singular premise. The special is freely available on YouTube.
