Obsession

For me, the scariest thing in the film isn't the possession, the gore, or the increasingly deranged imagery... It's watching Bear repeatedly choose his own fantasy over Nikki's humanity. I mean, even from the start, he does not care about her despite desperately thinking he does, she feels uncomfortable at work and all he can think about is the increase in difficulty to get into her pants. I'm not saying he's a monster, because it's not that straightforward, but he definitely does NOT have Nikki's best interests at heart, or has even considered them ; the one moment when Nikki is not possessed, and pleads to be put out of her misery (which I'm not saying he should've done that because that's a crazy thing to ask someone to do when they "love" you), but all he can think about and say is "what's so wrong about being with me?" Like hello?! WTF! Also Nikki killing Sarah was like expected but like still caught me by surprise! Like I knew she was gonna jumpscare me and kill her but it still got me, and then when she started bashing her head into the wheel, it went from brutal, to funny, to completely morbid, to funny again... I laughed a fair bit whilst watching this... 90% of the time out of discomfort. I've heard that Curry Barker (who I've followed for quite a while by the way, not like a brag or anything lmao, but like it's amazing to see what he's been able to do, having seen all his silly skits and stuff) is making a sequel to this which intrigues me for sure! But, I definitely need it to be a complete different cast (I mean 3/4 are dead so you'd think so), but I would like there to at least be a verbal mention of Nikki's outcome at some point, like on a TV news channel or something (though the alternative ending where she straight up kills herself as a final jumpscare low-key sounds fire as fuck and I hope that's a bonus feature in a future physical release). That being said, I have heard the idea of well what if Bear is resuscitated or suddenly wakes up and then the wish reignites, which sounds interesting but like I feel as though it'd be so easy to fuck that up and we don't need that. P.s sorry for me yapping (apologies if ya say through the whole review, tho you did choose to do so), the top paragraph is my review and the sequential paragraphs after that are just me brainstorming and they probably read like shit lol.
