Obsession (2026) — Read, Study & Download the Screenplay
You Can Make Someone Love You. You Cannot Make It Real.
Curry Barker’s Obsession screenplay begins with a lonely man, a longtime crush, and a novelty wish too ridiculous to carry consequences. When Bear wishes that Nicky loved him more than anyone else in the world, the fantasy arrives instantly. What it cannot provide is freedom, trust, or the mutual choice that makes love human.
For screenwriters and film students, this screenplay is a sharp study in moral escalation, tonal control, and character-driven supernatural horror. Watch how familiar romantic-comedy beats become warning signs, how a protagonist repeatedly chooses fantasy over evidence, and how one impossible wish reveals an entitlement that was already waiting for permission.
