Rock On! This Week's Sound Bites...8/15/24
by Danny Coleman - published 2024-08-15
"I was kicking around in the '90s in Asbury Park and nothing was hitting and I came down here on a vacation and it just struck me; I needed to live in this city. I didn't even know the music here then, it was just the way the city felt, it was perfect. I moved down here with my band at the time; it all started out as a solo project, I was starting over and that just kind of morphed into The Soul Project and over the years; it has been 24 years almost and I can't believe it but it has been 24 years of molding, growing and learning from the ground up here in New Orleans."

First Look Review - "Oddity"
by Eric Hillis, TheMovieWaffler.com - published 2024-08-13
Over the last decade a crop of talented horror filmmakers has emerged from Ireland, with the likes of Lee Cronin (The Hole in the Ground) and Kate Dolan (You Are Not My Mother) quickly snapped up by Hollywood to helm instalments of the Evil Dead and M3GAN franchises. On the basis of his 2021 debut, Caveat, I suspected writer/director Damian McCarthy might be the most talented of this bunch, and his second film, Oddity, confirms my suspicions. In just two films, McCarthy has displayed more creativity, ingenuity and originality than many genre filmmakers manage across an entire filmography. As with Caveat, there are moments in Oddity that will have horror fans leaning forward and thinking "Well, that's something I haven't seen before."
