Obsession (2026) director Curry Barker says the film has a 'plot hole' that 'makes no sense' that centres around the One Wish Willow.
“I mean, it’s kind of a plot hole. It’s something I don’t like to think about too much, because it totally doesn’t make sense that there’s a world of people just making wishes,”
“It really doesn’t make any sense at all. If the One Wish Willow actually works, which it does in this lore, and people are just making wishes left and right, there would be some crazy — like, dragons would exist.”
“Here’s my take; every time someone makes a wish, they enter into an alternate reality where their wish comes true, so you’re not experiencing everybody’s wish at the same time. And that’s why—but that doesn’t make sense because the money falls from the ceiling. Yeah, it’s broken,” he conceded.
The money scene was a reference to a scene in which Bear’s friend Ian (Cooper Tomlinson) wishes for a large sum right in front of him.
Despite a major plothole, “Obsession 2” or a TV series is in works as Barker says,
“I obviously have a couple more things that I’m excited about next, but I do see Obsession 2, maybe. Or even what really is exciting to me is maybe an anthology, like a one-hour episode...Each episode is a different wish that goes completely off the rails...”
