(SPOILER) The player character is genetically programmed to obey someone anytime they say the phrase “Would you kindly.” A character manipulates them by constantly using this phrase to manipulate the player character throughout most of the game and even imprint them with false memories of their past.

not quite possession, but there are plasmids that allow you to change characters behaviours and have them do things for you.
Also the main game mechanic allows the main character to be taken advantage of, similar to possession.

the first scene has the player enter rapture through an enclosed bathysphere, and upon arrival, is trapped inside as an enemy tries to break in to attack. the bathysphere is very confined and seemingly unescapable. (SPOILERS: the splicer is distracted and leaves you alone and unharmed)

The whole premise of the doctors backstory is he was performing surgery to “make freaks into something you could show in the daylight” and then he gains access to adam and his standards are set unreasonably high. There is also themes of eugenics, non consensual medical experimentation and so on

Depends on whether you rescue or harvest the Little Sisters. Rescuing results in the (canon) good ending, but harvesting even one results in the bad ending.
