Oddity (2024)


I walked into this screening completely blind, which has become my preferred method of watching movies nowadays because trailers spoil everything. I much prefer to "discover" movies on my own, without any pre-existing hype. It's rare that it happens these days, but I really love the feeling of going into a film knowing absolutely nothing about it beforehand; not a synopsis, teaser or nary a screenshot (even the poster above I feel gives too much away).
Out of respect for the reader, I won't spoil this one so you can enjoy it under the exact same circumstance. It's a creepy little movie to watch in a darkened room after midnight. This was definitely a slow-burn, but incredibly effective and well done.
