Alison Foreman from IndieWire acknowledged that while Oddity isn’t perfect, its flaws are still consistent with the core of the film, saying, “Oddity delivers a brilliant, bespoke, and tightly entertaining string of ideas that work stronger as a collection — with even these missteps feeling like they branch from a unified center.” It clearly plays well to an audience too, as when it premiered at South by Southwest, it ended up winning the Audience Award in the Midnighter part of the festival. So, if you like indie horror and this film happens to be playing in a theater near you, it seems like it’s worth checking out.
Oddity is directed and written by Damian McCarthy. Along with Carolyn Bracken, the film stars Gwilym Lee, Tadhg Murphy, Caroline Menton, Steve Wall, Jonathan French, and Joe Rooney. Oddity is now playing in theaters.
