Moviegoers have been treated to several horror releases in spring and summer of 2024, including Late Night with the Devil, Abigail, Tarot, The Strangers: Chapter 1 MaXXXine and Longlegs. The latest horror film to hit theaters is Oddity, which came out in limited release on July 19.
The official synopsis for Oddity reads, “When Dani is brutally murdered at the remote country house that she and her husband Ted are renovating, everyone suspects a patient from the local mental health institution, where Ted is a doctor. However, soon after the tragic killing, the suspect is found dead.
“A year later, Dani’s blind twin sister Darcy, a self-proclaimed psychic and collector of cursed items, pays an unexpected visit to Ted and his new girlfriend, Yana. Convinced that there was more to her sister's murder than people know, Darcy has brought with her the most dangerous items from her cursed collection to help her exact revenge.”
According to When to Stream, Oddity will be released on digital streaming via premium video on demand on August 20. Pricing is yet to be announced. When the film becomes available on PVOD, viewers can expect to either purchase or rent Oddity on such digital platforms as Prime Video, AppleTV+ and VUDU.
How Did ‘Oddity’ Fare With Audiences And Critics?
Written and directed by Damian McCarthy and starring Carolyn Bracken as Dani/Darcy and Gwilym Lee (Bohemian Rhapsody) as Ted, Oddity premiered at the SXSW festival in March, where it won the Audience Award in the Midnighters category.
Rated R, Oddity opened in 790 theaters, per Deadline, on July 19. According to Box Office Mojo, Oddity, which was co-produced horror streamer Shudder and distributed by IFC Films, only played in North American theaters and earned $1.1 million. Information on the film’s production budget has not been released.
