@bugzyuri ohh characters that are unsure of themselves and hate and love what they discover about themselves through being human but also have to reconcile with how evil humans are
A non-zero number of you apparently did not know that The Last Unicorn was a book before it was a movie. It is by Peter S. Beagle. It is made of spun glass and fairytales and iron knives and there are individual lines that I would give my lungs to have written.
people are overanalyzing Obsession to make themselves seem smart and woke, you are not a film bro because you understand that Nikki is a victim and Bear is a bad guy. Nikki is not a villain, she is the antagonist. there's a difference. antagonists can be scary.
Things that I have, unfortunately learned WELL against my will about at least half the horror community:
1. None of y’all would ever bat an eye at Regan from The Exorcist (a child who had her autonomy stripped from her), Carrie (a victim of literal abuse and torment both from her mother and classmates), Jason (once a CHILD victim who died tragically), any deadites from The Evil Dead franchise, to name a few, being added, but yall draw the line at Nikki for some reason.
2. Obsession was clearly baby’s first horror movie for too many of yall, because why are we acting like Nikki is the first SA survivor to become a horror icon?
3. Y’all need everything SPOON fed to you because, why are we also having discourse on whether or not Freddy Krueger was a child molestor?
4. It’s okay for Freddy to be a child predator, but when The Grabber comes into the conversation, it’s pearl clutching time
5. Not a single one of you actually cares that the LITERAL CAST AND CREW LOVE SEEING HER ADDED
6. Too many of you care more about a literal FICTIONAL character than yall do about real life SA survivors telling you it’s actually more offensive that you only see Nikki as what happened to her.
7. You ALL need to touch grass yesterday!
