Obsession collected $3.7M on its third day, bringing the three-day total to $6.9M. Curry Barkerβs horror film has managed to avoid the steep collapse that many smaller genre titles experience after their opening weekend.
The film appears to have found a modest but dedicated audience that responded to its premise and execution. While it is unlikely to become a breakout hit, the steady mid-week additions suggest it has carved out a small but stable space for itself. In a year where horror has been inconsistent at the box office, this kind of holding power is worth noting.
With limited direct competition in the genre over the next few days, Obsession has a short window to build on this momentum. However, the arrival of bigger releases next week will likely eat into its screens, making the next few days crucial for its final numbers.
