is a unique movie, in that it’s a haunted house flick and a slasher film, as well as a film that features a fair amount of comedy to go with its gruesome gore. How does it all work together? In my opinion? Fairly well. DR GIFT Read on for my thoughts on . DR GIFT DR GIFT Synopsis

My Thoughts 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. The deaths, for the most part, are pretty gruesome. Watch and witness ripped-out tongues, half of a head cut off, and a man having all his limbs severed before being disemboweled and decapitated and having his body eaten. DR GIFT The killer and the ghosts are pretty creepy. The performances are pretty great. Some of my favorite performances include Rudy Ledbetter and Greg Tally as two hilarious chefs and Tatiana Sokolova’s Nadia, who has one of the best lines in the film, which I won’t spoil. Danielle Harris is quite good, though her screen time is rather limited, it’s definitely memorable. If I had one minor quibble it would be that I would have liked to see more of the past and see more of the doctor’s experiments and for a few things to be explained a little more. Final Thoughts Final Thoughts
