What's the moral of the story?

That you shouldn’t be tricked into watching a terrible movie just because "critics" were paid off to give it good reviews

The morale of the story is The Monkey's Paw by William Wymark Jacobs.

That he should have made her do ass to mouth and be into the pissing and vomiting, if he truly wanted her to love him. The "demon" was only bringing out what was already inside her, a side of her that she was afraid to show the world, and he rejected that side of her.

No real moral, but the movie obviously is a take on toxic codependent relationships and insane abusive BPD girls.
But the supernatural aspect being confirmed, makes the message muddled as the MC is clearly just a supernatural rapist.
I think the movie would have worked better if you take out some of the more insane "supernatural" shit (her smiling at the door all day) and introduce her actually being genuinely manipulative, talking shit about him behind his back to the others to make them cut him off and make him isolated and things like that.
Then also have it never confirmed if the "wish" is real or not, did he just start dating an insane BPD psycho who is really just using him to get back at his friend, or did his wish get granted.
Most the shit she did was pretty obvious BPD behaviour, making scenes in public, lying then playing victim and going on the offensive when caught, extreme violent levels of obsession and possessiveness and jealousy, standing at the end of the bed watching the person as they sleep etc. If you've dated BPD psychos you've experienced all this shit.

Femanon here with some truth: The movie is about guys that cant move on when they need to move on. If you have to enslave someone to make yourself happy, you are selfish. You can tell yourself all the incel bullshit you want to try an justify your shitty actions, but if you have to force someone to do something for your own happiness, then you are straight up selfish and you deserve the pain that happens in the movie.

The moral is that you can automatically bump the quality and enjoyment of your movie by a few stars just by having an actual attractive lead actress instead of a whale, negress, or troon.

Erm sorry but instead of triggering dopamine chemicals whenever she looks at you, we actually replaced her consciousness with some mentally deficient demon. Also btw, we actually did not even fully replace her, she is locked up in mental jail hell and sometimes she can escape and control her body too and act even crazier lol.

There is no moral, what is this, one of those educational kids fairy tales?

The movie is made with marketing and getting people into the cinema in mind. It is supposed to shock and make people talk about it afterwards, for word of mouth effect. What would you have done in this situation, who is the really the baddie in the plot etc.

so they obviously have left it unanswered: the girl is bad for having wished death upon the guy she has friendzoned for years. the guy is bad for not having been honest with his feelings and "forcing" the girl to love him, even if he did not really believe his wish would come true. at the end you have nice guys and the metoo crowd shitting at each other with memes from this movie and thus viral market it for free.

Just saw this last night. Going in I had no preconceptions, I thought it would a psych-horror thing. I was disappointed 20 minutes in when it revealed itself to be a monkey's paw tale. It was funny, I'll give it that. Its like a 6/10 realistically. The problem w/ a horror movie like Obsession is that women's IRL behavior in 2026 is more horrifying than any Hollywood movie.

If you think you want this in a girl, you dont. you probably just have low self esteem like me and either dont think you could do better, or like the idea of a girl loving you no matter how little you do to earn it. Learn from my mistake and run at the first sign of this behavior.

Remember at the beginning of the movie how Ian mentions Andy Richter keeps a gun in the safe? When Nikki kills Sarah, she takes the body to the music store. She did this to get the gun in the safe. I think the movie is about gun violence and how your gun is more likely to kill ones you love than intruders.

She was literally transported into the shadow realm while a demon piloted her body like a flesh puppet.

Which is a stupid female perspective, because guys love clingy girls.

That's one of the messages at least. The whole idea of her being trapped in there and not wanting to be with him was way more interesting to me. That actually worked on a horror level.

It was an alright movie. Kinda goofy but memorable.

>>221149995

Why are anon's insisting the wishing willow in this movie is some sort of monkey's paw or vindictive genie?

Bear's primary sin is that he wishes to impose his will upon Nikki and take away her agency, and the rest of the story punishes him for this. Also the reason he gets a possessive controlling Nikki when he asks for "love" is because he doesn't have a mature concept of love himself, so the monkey's paw takes his definition. Ultimately he gets a cursed wish because he made it with an impure heart.

I see you're reposting twitter bait from some woman who misinterpreted everything
>>
>>221149385
I didn't really like that implication as I find it way more horrifying to think that she is still the same Nikki rather than two Nikkis, because on some level she's conscious of this tug and pull in her mind. It's especially disturbing when the wish first activates and she seems to be aware that something has happened to her mind but she can't understand what.

In this case, the twitter foids are smarter than you because that's exactly what the movie is about. We see Nikki screaming in her hell dimension on the phone. She breaks out of the control several times in the film. If you didn't get this, then you are a midwit. The only thing the twitter lefties are wrong about is the idea that Bear intentionally tried to take her agency away. He didn't think the magic was real, he was just fucking around. But after the magic worked and he knew what happened, what did he do? He fucked her, told her to act normal, and when "real Nikki" asks him to kill her he just whines about being an unlovable incel.

This movie makes rapists seethe and that's a good thing.

From what I’ve seen its less them not getting he didn’t realize it would work and kore on its face the wish was evil. Even if it was unserious he did make a wish to replace her agency. Not expecting it to work doesn’t matter as much as it being what he wanted in the first place.

Bears main sin was to be an indecisive faggot.
Think of when he makes the wish. He has every opportunity and chance to ask her out normally yet pussies out. This is why I never sympathises with him and that was clearly the intent. The lesson, if any is to be gleaned from it, is not to hesitate and fuck up your life with some quick fix bullshit.


Plus the fact he couldn't handle it showed he was weak. Real love should be raw and uncompromising so he clearly needed to fuck her better and treat her better so both the trapped inner her and the demon were satisfied. That or the inner self gave up/surrenderd herself to the fate of being his bred wife (the horror!)
Fuck bear. He could have also killed her and fled with the billion too right at the end. He had the gun after all and she wanted him to kill her etc. just had decisions all around on his part.
>>
>>221149576

You clearly don't know women and how to pick up on their retarded signals. She wasn't flirting with Bear to get Ian jealous, it was obvious from the car ride to her house that she knew that Bear had a crush on her, but she didn't feel the same way and wanted to establish boundaries.

The chad move to play is not given a shit about women's head games and press on to what you want from them. That or he could have skipped the used goods and got the Asian chick but he was blind to her advances/didn't fancy her I guess.

>>
>>221154360
They're not like that
>>
>>221144081
The objectively superior girl in the movie did like him for being him though. He wasn't an incel out of options and wished for the only girl he ever knew to like him. He was just a simp who fell for a whore that was fucking his friend and it ruined his life.
The moral is that you should figure out who genuinely likes you before getting stuck in to a relationship.
>>
I kinda hated Sarah for waiting so long to tell Bear that she liked him because everything could've been avoided if she had told him before he made the wish, but I'm just realizing she probably expected to move far away for college so she figured what's the point. It wasn't until she had gotten turned down from so many schools and was expecting to stay in her hometown that she finally decided to tell him Nicki is a ho.

Which is exactly what Nikki did when she confronted Bear and ask him if he liked her, because she intended to shoot him down and clearly define their relationship. But he was too beta to be honest with her.

>That or he could have skipped the used goods and got the Asian chick but he was blind to her advances/didn't fancy her I guess.

Nikki hinted to Bear that Sara liked him and that he should giver her a chance. But you are correct, that he was too blinded by his obsession with Nikki to consider any other chick.

>Bear was an indecisive beta sperg and deserved what he got.

100%. But Nikki was the innocent party, destroyed by his obsession and inability to be honest with her and himself.

Finally saw it. I really liked it overall, probably even loved it, but I definitely have some issues with it.
I think my biggest problem is the fact that it doesn't ease into the story. Instead of starting off like a quirky, Hughes-esque romance movie like it seems from the opening scene before turning into something entirely different when Bear finds out about the cancer ruse, the movie just rushes into horror elements really fast to where we can see where it's going too soon. We never really get a sense of who these characters are, where they are, or what their relationships to each other are. This definitely corrects itself in the second half of the film somewhat but the world of these characters feels strangely claustrophobic, which is an issue I have with most films now.
There's also some cliches I don't care for, especially in the middle of the film. It doesn't make sense that Nikki doesn't move like a normal person and has those jittery, fast horror movements. She's at her scariest when she's doing typical mentally ill things like pissing and shitting on the floor in place, screaming at Bear, making the cat sandwich, freaking out in public, self-harming, having her Stepfather-esque lucid moments in her sleep, and killing Sarah and Ian. It just comes across as a tad bit of immersion-breaking hackery expected of a Blumhouse film that takes me out of the atmosphere a bit.
I'm also divided on certain aspects. I'm torn on the deliberately eclectic setting: sometimes it feels like the Rust Belt, other times like the Upper Midwest, sometimes like the South, and other times like the Southwest. I feel like a story like this would be most effective in somewhere like Allentown PA or Rochester NY, areas where there's lots of Young White men getting by in dilapidated, aging, desperate areas where lots of Hispanics are moving in, perhaps making the movie more of a commentary on the freefall of the Rust Belt and flyover America from the PoV of young PT1
>>
PT2
White men trapped in a Beau Is Afraid-type psychological hurt locker where they're trying to make the most of a bad situation only to make it worse the way moving makes you sink faster in quicksand. Perhaps you could even tie in opioid usage somewhere in there given the film seems to consistently hint at that but never knows what to do with it until the end.
I'm also a bit divided on the willow itself. I feel like the film would be far more disturbing and engrossing if she simply started acting like this out of nowhere, leaving him completely in the dark about her behavior and how it works, though I will admit that it does make the ending really special. "I wish for a billion dollars" is probably one of the best lines of any film from this decade, and I highly encourage anyone interested in this movie to see it just for that scene alone. I probably would have cut it out entirely to make the ending all the more tragic and more of a Stepfather-type thing given I weirdly feel like that's the film most similar to this one in terms of structure, themes, and aesthetic.
Overall though, very good and very timely film. It was really only a matter of time before a film like this was made and I'm glad that unlike Eddington it's becoming a hit instead of a cult classic. Hollywood will probably learn all the wrong lessons from it, but at least it's proof that some Zoomer creatives are finally getting their feet in the door. May it be the beginning of a neo-Hollywood resurgence we all desperately want and need.
Also one last thing, fuck Hollywood producers for once again never showing female nudity and always showing man ass whenever there's a sex scene in a film with erotic themes. It's a horror movie for fucks sake, unless it's gay I want to see some fucking tits and girl ass too, Romeo and Juliet figured this out in 1968 that the best sexual films have male and female nudity alike to cover all the bases.

I rarely watch horror movies because I'm a pussy who hates getting scared. The last horror movie I saw in theaters was the Frighteners, and that barely counts as a horror movie. I like the premise and made an exception for Obsession. Also anons were hyping this movie up on the board months before it even came out and that convinced me to give it a chance.

There is no moral. It's just a reminder to zoomoid men that they aren't entitled to womyn's love or attention, that if you desire womyn you're a disgusting creep beta if she doesn't reciprocate. And for womyn, it's the perfect movie to match their psychosis since it tells them that nice guys are actually evil fucking rapist bastards only interested in your body.

Lol this. while Nikki is definetly very creepy and unsettling you can easily deal with her. Just put her in psychitric ward or at worst kill her because she is a woman.
Nothing compares to IRL where woman, the person you potentially trust the most in the world, can betray you on a whim, while taking half of your shit in the process, make your children hate you and make friends and family to abandon you. Now thats real horror.

This was my problem too.
