Snippet:
The indie horror film Obsession is an unmistakable sign of Generation Z’s box-office power, an original movie that has made $US300 million ($430 million) in the US on a $750,000 budget. In Australia, it has grossed more than $19 million – an extraordinary figure for a horror movie in the local market.
