Reviews:
“Dr Gift is a movie that really shouldn’t work; A haunted house/slasher/horror comedy. Surprisingly, it works quite well. The comedy occurs quite naturally through the characters and doesn’t feel forced. The relationships and characters themselves are just naturally funny. This helps lull the audience into a false sense of security before the bodies start dropping and things get bloody.” Pop Horror
