DVD Review: 'Odd Thomas'
★★★☆☆ Based on the bestselling novel by American author Dean Koontz, Odd Thomas (2013) comes to UK DVD after a short legal battle quashed any possibility of a theatrical release. Directed by Stephen Sommers, whose mild-horror track record has been demonstrated with films such as The Mummy (1999) and Van Helsing (2004), this lively adaptation follows rising star Anton Yelchin in the titular role as a spatula-spinning, short order chef. However, juggling utensils is not his only talent as Odd Thomas - odd by name, odd by nature - has a somewhat overcooked sixth sense. In short, he sees dead people - lots of dead people.
