“We are connected…”

Oddity premiered in limited theaters on July 19th 2024 and is now available to watch on demand as of August 21st 2024. The supernatural mystery horror film stars Carolyn Bracken, Gwilym Lee, Caroline Menton, Tadhg Murphy, and Steve Wall. It runs for approximately an hour and thirty-eight minutes.

After the brutal murder of her twin sister, Darcy is determined to get revenge on those responsible by using haunted items.

Here is the trailer:

Oddity lures us into a compelling mystery with some terrifying moments weaved into the plot. Is it worthy of your next watch? Let’s find out…

The Pros:

Chilling opening scene…

The opening scene draws you in completely without wasting time with unnecessary fluff. It was so eerie and I have a feeling it will give me quite a few nightmares in the future. This really set the tone for the rest of the film, effectively reeling its audience into an intriguing and eerie mystery.

Genuinely scary!

I haven’t jumped like this in a really long time! There were quite a few spine-tingling moments in this one that had me on the edge of my seat. It was quite refreshing to see some organic scares that didn’t feel cheesy or forced by any means. They just worked naturally with the plot of the story, enhancing my viewing experience that much more.

The Cons:

Slower parts at times.

I wouldn’t say that this was a major con and it didn’t take away from the overall impact of the film by any means. We started off with such a bang so it made sense for things to slow down a little bit after this. It still built up enough intensity leading to the reveals and I have to say that I was thoroughly impressed by that ending. Well done!

So am I in or out?

I’m in!!!

Oddity is a cleverly made horror film that unleashes some frightening moments upon its audience, never letting us off the hook.

This film exceeded my expectations and then some! I’m not sure that I’ll be sleeping for a while though…

DON’T TAKE THE JOB…

It was only supposed to be temporary…but when Olivia Crewe accepts a new position that seems too good to be true, she soon discovers that twelve other girls previously had the same job as her. Only none of them lasted for more than thirty days. No notice. Nothing…right before they mysteriously disappeared without a trace.
