When I saw the trailer for Obsession before Hokum (which is a great movie btw), I honestly thought it looked kind of generic. I'm surprised to see so much praise for it. I guess I will have to check it out.

I saw it with my wife. Neither of us are big horror fans but we both agreed the movie is well done. The movie isn't flashy, but it has solid writing and good performances.
