Odd Thomas — Trailer Rewind
### "I may see dead people, but, by God, I do something about it." Mining book series for films is an all to frequent occurrence. Some are able to successfully make the transition from page to screen, while others struggle. The Odd Thomas series by Dean Koontz would seem an ideal source to tap for a film adaptation. This month JJ and Steve visit Pico Mundo to solve a mystery with Odd Thomas in a very special Anton Yelchin memorial Trailer Rewind episode. They discuss the unique tone of the film and how it balances the horror, mystery, and comedy components of the story to create an enjoyable and light film. They talk about the mixed strengths of the cast and special effects and how they create a world that’s grounded in reality yet is infused with elements of an idealized small town. It’s a quirky film that’s ripe for viewing as a Halloween treat for teens. ### Film Sundries - Watch this film: [iTunes](https://itunes.apple.com/us/movie/odd-thomas/id796897605?at=11lrTo) • [Amazon](https://www.amazon.com/Odd-Thomas-Anton-Yelchin/dp/B00HHYF570/tag=rashpixel_mwl-20) • [Netflix](https://www.netflix.com/title/70253161) - [Script Transcript](http://www.springfieldspringfield.co.uk/movie_script.php?movie=odd-thomas) - [Original theatrical trailer](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CV_7tOWGvio) - [Original poster artwork](http://www.impawards.com/2013/odd_thomas_ver7.html) - [Flickchart](http://www.flickchart.com/movie/8E318246FD) - [Letterboxd](https://letterboxd.com/film/odd-thomas/)
