I have an unhealthy obsession with this film. Can anybody recommend other movies I might enjoy? I already have the Brood and I love Cronenberg, Lynch, etc.

Jess Franco's SUCCUBUS (1968). Makes a nice companion piece to POSSESSION. It's also about a "possessed" woman, it doesn't make a whole lotta sense if you take the plot at face value and it was also filmed in Berlin!

Jacob's Ladder, oh yeah!!
Also - ARREBATO. That film also is pretty close to VIDEODROME.
VOTE JACOB'S LADDER INTO THE TOP 250's!!!

I would certainly suggest Inland Empire, and other Lynch films.
There's a film called The Church by Michele Soavi which has a similar copulation scene - in this case with the Devil. In which case, I would say Rosemary's Baby is also relevant, and it has the same sense of derangement at times in the female lead
Possession also reminded me of a lot of Dario Argento's work, and I certainly agree that Hellraiser and several of Cronenberg's films would be worth watching -

Holy beep naked lunch!! that is a trip and a half!
I found the film hilarious, but it is of a sinister nature but then again I found possession to be even more hilarious from scene to scene.
Anyway, Cronenberg is the master, so this conversation is over -

The above is an excellent reccommendation. If you enjoy dark / macabre and hysterical cinema, The Tenant is a superb choice. Isabelle Adjani also features as a pivotal (if somewhat mysterious) role in the film.
