Mike Flanagan Just Named A New Streaming Movie One Of The Scariest Flicks Of The Year

Movies



I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again — we are living in a golden age of horror movies. The 2024 movie schedule has been nothing short of spectacular, with films like First Omen, Late Night With The Devil, Longlegs, and The Substance leading the charge in a year packed with terrifying gems. But if you ask Mike Flanagan, the horror mastermind behind hits like The Haunting of Hill House, Midnight Mass, and The Fall Of The House of Usher–all available to stream with a Netflix subscription–there’s one film that stands above the rest as one of the scariest of the year. That movie is Oddity, a chilling supernatural thriller with a 95% critical score, though you probably haven’t seen it. However, fret not because it just dropped on Shudder.

Oddity has already started making waves for its suspenseful storytelling and deeply unsettling atmosphere. Damian McCarthy’s follow-up to his 2021 breakout hit Caveat, this latest film is quickly being hailed as one of the scariest of the year — and Flanagan obviously agrees. In a recent post on his Letterboxd account, the Hush filmmaker didn’t hold back on his praise for the flick, writing:

Absolutely excellent. Damian Mc Carthy’s engrossing, terrifying follow-up to his atmospheric and chilling CAVEAT is a masterclass in dread, atmosphere, and tension. An arresting opening sequence involving a woman answering the door to an unsettling stranger blossoms into a tale of supernatural revenge, mournful spirits, and buried secrets.
