Movie Review – Chris Ranson on Odd Thomas (2013)

Title: Odd Thomas (2013) Director: Stephen Sommers Runtime: 100 minutes — To say I am a huge Dean Koontz fan would be an understatement. Not only have I read all of his novels, but I own them all as well. Lots of ups and downs there, but one of his more recent novels, and one…
