Obsessed (2009) *

What I love most about Obsessed is that it makes no sense. I could give you a long, drawn out plot synopsis or I could just ask you if you have seen either Play Misty For Me or Fatal Attraction. You have? Well now you have the basic plot except in those two films there's an actual relationship between the stalker and the stalkee. In Obsessed the psycho (Ali Larter) sees her prey (Idris Elba) on an elevator and the fun begins! Throw in Beyonce as the wife that's as psychotic as the stalker and you get a craptastic ride on a script that should have been written on toilet paper. I was on the edge of my seat because I wanted to see how stupid the stalkee was going to be in his next scene. Let this be a lesson to all of you guys out there: when a blond molests you in the mens room stall and you resist because you're a married man, please tell your wife. Otherwise you're going to have to explain how said blond is naked and OD'd in your hotel room. Unless your with the Rolling Stones.
