Article Summary

  • Focus Features reveals a new international poster for the horror movie Obsession ahead of its theatrical debut.
  • Obsession made its world premiere at the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival, generating early buzz.
  • The film explores the dark side of romance, using horror to examine the dangers of unhealthy relationships.
  • Obsession is set for a May 15, 2026 theatrical release after Focus Features acquired it for $15 million.

It might be the beginning of the year, but that doesn't mean we aren't getting some horror films in theaters. Focus Features has always done a pretty good job of walking the line between mainstream studio and indie. They fit into this nice little middle ground. They usually find interesting films to develop and distribute. In this case, it's a distribution deal as Obsession first made its debut at the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival and paid a sweet $15 million for the rights. The concept itself remains fascinating, even to someone who isn't into horror much. Using horror to explore unhealthy relationship dynamics, see Together last year, is going to make a lot of date nights really entertaining. IMP Awards got their hands on a new international poster for the film, and it's not bad. It certainly gets the point across.
