Oddity

 


      Finally, a horror movie that lives up to its genre. This new film written and directed by Damian McCarthy is creepy, unsettling, and actually dare I say it, scary. 

       Mr. McCarthy has written a very weird but accessible story line and directs with an assured hand that knows exactly where and when to jolt you out of your seat. It's the first horror film I've seen in a long time that actually gave me goosebumps.

       The film stars Gwilym Lee, Carolyn Bracken, Tadhg Murphy, Caroline Menton, Steve Wall, and Jonathan French. It was filmed in Ireland and despite accents, you can easily watch without subtitles. I recommend watching it in the dark and not alone.

       The less said about the plot the better but from the moment it starts until the very last frame, it will have you on edge. Streaming now, as video on demand, on multiple outlets.
