Obsession has emerged as one of the biggest surprise hits of 2026. Directed by Curry Barker, the supernatural horror film was made on a budget of less than $1 million but has gone on to become a major box office success. The movie continues to attract audiences in theatres and has earned strong word-of-mouth support since its release.
The film follows a simple but unsettling premise that has connected with viewers around the world. Its success has been particularly remarkable because it achieved impressive box office numbers without relying on major stars or a large marketing campaign.
As the film continues its successful theatrical run, many fans are now eager to know when they will be able to watch it at home. According to a report by Forbes, Obsession was originally expected to arrive on premium video-on-demand platforms on June 2. However, those plans were reportedly delayed after the movie continued to perform strongly in cinemas.
Reports cited by World of Reel suggest that distributor Focus Features decided to keep the film in theatres longer to take advantage of its ongoing success. Current estimates indicate that Obsession could become available on premium digital platforms around June 23 or later.
However, no official digital release date has been announced so far. Viewers in India may have to wait even longer for details about its streaming release, as the studio has not yet revealed when or where the film will be available online.
For now, Obsession remains exclusively in theatres while its impressive box office run continues.
