“Oddity” is a horror movie released during a year that’s been filled with spooky stories from a variety of filmmakers and their specific interests in delivering slow-burn creep to the masses. Writer/director Damian Mc Carthy returns to the tried and true approach of ghostly experiences and unstable people with the effort, which explores the death of a woman and the different ways her loved ones react to her sudden loss, turning to the unexplainable for answers. Mc Carthy gets farther than most with his understanding of screen tension, building a suspenseful reunion situation for the characters, while adding touches of the supernatural to keep the whole thing periodically surprising. “Oddity” is strong work from the helmer, who conjures mood and does well with mystery, generating an engrossing sit with uneasy relationships and the addition of dark magic.
