Extra Ordinary

Ahern and Loughman strike a formidable balance between laughs and lilting moments of emotion.

A driving instructor with a gift for banishing demons comes to the aid of a troubled widower in this horribly enjoyable tale.

There is a warmth to this film, an easy charm, that comes from a script aware of the genre conventions with which it’s experimenting and from a cast willing to jump headfirst into whatever surrealism is required.

The ingredients are unorthodox, but they come together in an uproarious way. As a Dubliner would say, it’s absolute gas.

...manages to combine horror and comedy without being about zombies, and its take on the supernatural is hilariously deadpan and matter-of-fact.
