EP#471 - Curry Barker (Obsession)

Writer/director Curry Barker joins The Boo Crew in studio, to discuss the making of Obsession…the breakout horror phenomenon already being hailed as one of the best genre films in years. We dive into internet horror culture, parasocial terror, comedy and tension, practical effects, audience reactions, uncanny valley psychology, the emotional DNA of the film, and what it’s been like watching Obsession absolutely explode across the horror world before release. PLUS: working with Inde Navarrette and Michael Johnston, the hypnotic score, modern horror filmmaking, and what comes next. Obsession hits theaters everywhere May 15th.  This one is an absolute all-timer. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
