[Interview] Carolyn Bracken and Gwilym Lee Talk ‘Oddity’ and Halloween
The new horror movie Oddity arrives in theaters this week, and we talked to the film’s stars Carolyn Bracken (You Are Not My Mother) and Gwilym Lee (Bohemian Rhapsody) about working in the horror genre, their own personal oddities that they keep around their homes, and more.
In the film, 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.
Written and directed by Damian McCarthy (Caveat), the cast is led by killer performances from both Bracken and Lee, and along with Tadhg Murphy, Caroline Menton, Jonathan French, and Steve Wall.
In a our video conversation last week, we also of course talked about celebrating Halloween, their favorite Halloween costumes and treats, and more.
Oddity will be released in theaters this Friday, July 19, and will stream on Shudder at a later date.
