The success of indie horror film 'Obsession' has sparked a debate about the pay structure of indie productions, especially those that find acquisition and see box office success. Jason Blum, the executive producer of the film, has made a significant profit from the movie's success, earning around $17 million in box office bonuses. However, this has raised questions about the fairness of the pay structure for those who work below the line, such as the art director Sally Choi, who made under $7,000 for her work on the film. The success of 'Obsession' has also ignited a movement among filmmakers to speak up about the pay structure of indie productions, with the hope of turning a tide in the film industry. The film has grossed over $229 million worldwide, and its success has been attributed to its positive reviews and Gen Z buzz. However, the debate about the pay structure of indie productions is likely to continue, as the film industry grapples with the question of how to fairly compensate those who work below the line for their contributions to the success of a film.
