"Obsession," a horror-romance film created by YouTuber Curry Barker, has achieved remarkable commercial success with over $429 million in worldwide box-office revenue, establishing itself as one of 2026's most unexpected blockbusters. The film exemplifies an emerging industry pattern whereby digital creators successfully transition to theatrical distribution, joining recent projects such as A24's "Backrooms" and the science-fiction horror film "Iron Lung" in validating this career pathway.

The film is now accessible through Peacock's streaming service, available to existing subscribers without additional charges beginning July 17. Viewers may opt for Peacock's standard Premium tier at $10.99 monthly or the Premium Plus option at $16.99 monthly, with discounted annual subscriptions available, or access the service for 30 days through a Walmart+ promotion for $1.
