It is very very close to October and I know some of you have pumpkins on your socks as yo're reading this, so it's the season for spooky movies! And one of this year's finest examples of such has just today hit Shudder. Wwriter-director Damian McCarthy, who made a little bunny toy freak out anybody who saw Caveat a couple of years ago, went and made an even better movie for us in 2024 with Oddity -- read my review over at Pajiba if you missed it when the movie played a few theaters in July. it's kind of a kitchen-sink approach to scares but not at all in a way that calls attention to itself -- there is a ton going on in Oddity but I felt like McCarthy juggled everything with outrageous dexterity. Just a real feat of sleights of hand that jabs you in the ribs while he's got you staring at the clouds. Great stuff! Big fan.
