Netflix has had both big successes and noticeable failures with fantasy shows, and even its popular series sometimes struggle. For instance, The Witcher began with a lot of promise, but later seasons weren’t as well-received by critics or viewers. While a few Netflix fantasy shows are consistently good, only one truly stands out as a masterpiece.
Curry Barker, known for the online comedy duo “that’s a bad idea” and his breakout 2024 horror short Milk & Serial (made for just $800), makes his feature film directorial debut with the new horror movie Obsession. The film, produced with support from Blumhouse Productions, centers on a young man (Michael Johnston) whose wish for his crush (Inde Navarrette) to reciprocate his feelings comes true – with unexpected consequences. Obsession has been a hit with both critics and audiences, earning a 94% rating on both Rotten Tomatoes’ Tomatometer and Popcornmeter.

Originally created by Jason and Peter Filardi, the horror series Chapelwaite faced significant delays due to the COVID-19 pandemic. When it finally premiered on Epix in 2021, it didn’t attract a large audience. While viewers enjoyed it – giving it an 80% rating on Rotten Tomatoes – critics were less impressed, with a score of only 56% based on 18 reviews. Now, nearly five years later, Chapelwaite is gaining popularity on MGM+ after moving from Epix. This success is similar to what happened with Mr. Mercedes, which found a larger audience when it switched from the Audience Network to Paramount+; both shows allowed viewers to discover or revisit hidden gems they couldn’t easily access before.
