10 Recent Movie Twists EVERYONE Predicted
1. The Husband Did It - Oddity
Damian McCarthy's Oddity is a terrifically crafted little horror flick, which kicks off with the brutal murder of psychiatrist Ted Timmis' (Gwilym Lee) wife Dani (Carolyn Bracken).
We're initially supposed to believe that one of Ted's own patients is responsible, but for fans of the murder-mystery genre, it won't take long to realise that something foul is afoot.
"The husband did it!" is such an obvious true crime trope that viewers might feel like they're being deliberately misled with how increasingly off Ted's behaviour is throughout the film's first two acts.
But indeed, that's precisely it - Ted hired an orderly at his hospital to kill Dani so he could start a new life with another woman, Yana (Caroline Menton).
It's not remotely surprising, though the chaos that ensues as Ted attempts to cover his tracks throughout the third act is decidedly trickier to see coming - namely the savage revenge scheme of Dani's vengeful twin sister Darcy (also played by Carolyn Bracken).
