Obsessão horror film launches on streaming after record-breaking box‑office run
The 2026 supernatural horror film Obsessão, directed by Curry Barker and starring Michael Johnston and Inde Navarrette, became the year’s biggest horror phenomenon. Produced on a budget of under US$ 1 million, it earned over US$ 400 million worldwide – a return of more than 400 times its cost – and set records for Focus Features.
After its theatrical debut in May 2026, the movie entered premium video‑on‑demand, becoming available for purchase or rental in Brazil on platforms such as Prime Video, Apple TV, YouTube and others at R$ 59.90 (purchase) and R$ 29.90 (rental). It also topped first‑day streaming charts, beating titles like The Devil Wears Prada 2 and Project Hail Mary. A physical release on Blu‑ray, 4K Ultra HD and DVD is scheduled for 14 July in the United States, with an unrated extended cut. Critics have praised the film as a new classic of contemporary horror.
Future streaming availability is expected on Peacock in the United States, and the film is listed for streaming in Australia as well.
