Film:Odd Thomas (2013) Published in 2003, Odd Thomas is about a short order cook who is visited by a ghost of a young girl who has been brutally raped and murdered. The novel would kick off a series of six novels based on the chronicles of Odd Thomas and would lead to a film and graphic novel. Odd Thomas would be one of Dean Koontz most loved and critically acclaimed character and series. Odd Thomas (2013) Odd Thomas is a supernatural mystery thriller directed by Stephen Somner who also wrote the screenplay and co-produced. It stars that late Anton Yelchin. This would Stephen Somner’s last film to direct to date with his next project caught in production hell since 2005. The film was a box office bomb due to law suits and mismanagement of release. The film would find its audience on streaming services such as Netflix, Amazon Prime and Hulu. The film has also been reassessed by critics who consider this as one of the better Koontz adaptions.
