Odd Thomas (2013)



In a California desert town, a short-order cook with clairvoyant abilities encounters a mysterious man with a link to dark, threatening forces.

Oddly unbalanced horror comedy-drama that doesn't quite spark either laughs nor scares; and the funereal twist after the finale is downright disappointing.

Maltin**1/2: "Eerie effects, a thriller finale, and a soulful denouement make a fine sit. Fans will applaud the writer-director's adaptation of a 2003 novel by Dean Koontz, whose branded blend of banter and terror is well replicated. Nonfans, though, will be lost."
