A quotation from Adams, Douglas:
«
“You,” said Sally Mills, “are very strange.”
“Only,” said Dirk, “as strange as I need to be.”

I did a google reverse image search on this and found no matches. I'll attribute it if anyone knows the artist or the story.
It's so weird, I love it. The eyes with no face. The winged (?) goat-man. The anti-gravity red chameleon. Goat-man is involved with a radiating energy, that seems unusual. Perhaps that's why the chameleon is floating.
I'd love to know the story that prompted this masterpiece. Who lives in the sleeping village?
We posted a NEW episode S3 E4 is up and ready for a listen. #Shocktober #31DayaofHorror we talk about 4 of the movies we liked from the last half of October. #Oddity #Abigail #Longlegs #InAViolentNature
Oddity (2024): Psychologischer Horror, bei dem viel lange unklar bleibt, das Ende ist leider etwas schwächer als der Rest. Immerhin paar echt gute Gruselmomente und überhaupt beeindruckend, was der Film aus beschränkten Mitteln herausholt. Mochte ich, vor allem den Holzgolem. 7/10
New Blood Splattered Vlog!
This week The Horror Guru & Count Jackula review Oddity!
An Irish horror film about a blind clairvoyant and her quest to figure out who killed her twin sister! Ghosts, escaped mental patients, and cursed mannequins galore!
For the evening crowd: "a horror fan’s delight of murder, revenge and the supernatural, dripping creepy, unsettling atmosphere throughout"
My review of Damian McCarthy's Irish #horror , Oddity, is up on @PhilEdwards 's Live For Films now
Starting off my brace of @edfilmfest screenings with a very late night (starts at 11.55!) showing of Oddity at the Cameo Cinema tonight https://www.edfilmfest.org/film/oddity/

It's been an odd day around here. Our guy with Alzheimer's and dementia has flipped moods many times, and very quickly without warnings. While he naps I am working with photos from our Flagstaff Blitz vacation and this one seemed right for my mood too. Seen in a shop window downtown early morning. #Fur #Stare #Oddity #Flagstaff
I just saw #Longlegs and #Oddity back-to-back. I was impressed and fond of both, though I think I may have preferred Oddity by a touch.
Oddity, from writer-director #DamianMcCarthy (who also made the #Shudder fave #Caveat) is a bit less ambitious than Longlegs, as its plot is fairly elemental and can be sussed out quickly enough. But whereas the much-hyped Nic Cage thriller is a mix of hits and misses, Oddity nails positively every beat. Like the other film though, its vibes are immaculate and unsettling.
Just saw #Oddity. I dont do #horror often. But I love a good ghost storry. I would put this with the #Babadook and #TheOrphanage.
It's almost a year since Dani's sister died. Her brother in law visits her shop of odd items. He gives her the item she requested: the glass eye of the man that killed her sister.
A tight story. There to tell a story rather that do scares. I didnt know what to expect. And really enjoyed my time.
CW: some gore
