No, "My mind is watching horror movies" doesn't work as a replacement for "I'm obsessed with horror movies." The phrase "My mind is..." isn't a recognized expression in English to mean obsession or focus on something specific. If you want to rephrase "I'm obsessed with horror movies" in a more creative way, here are a few options: 1. Horror movies are always on my mind. 2. I can't stop thinking about horror movies. 3. My thoughts are consumed by horror movies. 4. I'm fixated on horror movies. 5. Horror movies have taken over my mind. These alternatives convey a strong fascination or obsession without using "obsessed."

You can't directly replace "I'm obsessed with horror movies" with "My mind is watching horror movies," as the latter doesn't convey the same meaning. "I'm obsessed with" suggests a strong passion or fixation, while "My mind is watching" implies that you are thinking about or imagining horror movies but doesn’t communicate the same intensity of interest. If you want a similar expression to convey obsession, you might say: * "I can't stop thinking about horror movies." * "I constantly have horror movies on my mind." * "My thoughts are consumed by horror movies." Let me know if you need more options!

My mind is on watching horror movies.

An "obsession" is usually a negative thing, but it can occasionally be positive too. When you say "I'm obsessed with horror movies", I can't tell if you like them or if they are a problem for you. Here's something you can say that is close to your sentence: "In my mind, I can't stop seeing horror movies."

No. "Obsessed with" means you can not think of anything else. You choose to entertain yourself with the movies everyday. another phrase to use; I'm enthralled with... or I live and breathe....
