Obsession tells a story of wish fulfillment gone very wrong, weaving a worst-case scenario of what happens when you invite the supernatural to tinker with the power of attraction. At the heart of its twisted “romance” is Nikki, a cool but complicated girl who becomes unwittingly possessed by a dark force that makes her pursue the object of her desire with increasingly worrisome intensity.
It’s a tough character to pull off, but Inde Navarrette‘s terrifying yet still somehow sympathetic performance cements her as not just a new horror superstar but an acting talent we’re sure to be hearing from for years to come.
But before Navarrette can pick up any kind of awards nomination—fingers crossed she’ll get some recognition despite Obsession being a genre film; look at what happened with Weapons’ Amy Madigan!—she gets her very own Funko Pop. Or, at least, Nikki does, sporting a blood-spattered face and party outfit along with her “B” (for Bear, obviously) necklace. She’s also clutching the dreaded One Wish Willow in her hand.
“Fall crazy in love with POP! Nikki from Obsession! She’s taking dating to new extremes, so be careful what you wish for when she arrives to join the party in your POP! Movies collection,” reads the official Funko press release. “This bloody POP! Nikki is sure to be a smash hit in your horror lineup. Vinyl figure is approximately 4 in (10.2 cm) tall.”
You can snag your very own “Freaky Nikki” (but don’t call her that; you know she hates that) for $15; she’s available now.
