‘Obsession’ Will Compete as a Musical or Comedy at the Golden Globes
Hollywood loves to make money from a horror movie, but when it comes to celebrating them, it’s much more complicated. This year, Curry Barker’s Obsession was the biggest success story in the genre, making over half a billion dollars on a budget of less than one million. It turned its director into a hot commodity, as well as its stars, Michael Johnston and Inde Naverette, the latter of whom has a legit chance at some awards.

It turned its director into a hot commodity, as well as its stars, Michael Johnston and Inde Naverette, the latter of whom has a legit chance at some awards. The two biggest awards, mostly because they’re both broadcast on television, are the Academy Awards, aka the Oscars, and the Golden Globes. At the Oscars, all movies are equal and compete against each other for most of the main prizes.
