Director : Stephen Sommers
Running Time : 93 mins
Small town fry cook Odd Thomas (Yelchin) has the unusual ability of being able to see the dead, as well as creatures called bodachs which feed off the death energy from huge disasters. When a large number of bodachs arrive in town, Odd finds himself investigating what they are here for, and hoping to prevent the massive disaster that they are here to witness.
I really enjoyed this adaptation of the first in the Dean Koontz series, and thought the characters were just as lively and likeable as they were in the books. All the nuances are there, as are all the comic touches, and the effects are reasonably good (you can tell this is directed by Stephen “The Mummy” Sommers). I’ve always felt that Odd Thomas had a lot to thank the TV show Dead Like Me, both for its premise and its visuals, but that doesn’t stop this from being a fun-filled supernatural detective thriller!
