Produced by horror masters Blumhouse, there is a very menacing edge to the whole affair, with some big scares dotted here and there.
Check out some of the glowing reviews for The Gift below.
Vulture – “The Gift starts out like so many other thrillers before it – with an attractive, well-to-do couple purchasing a big new house – and then beats its own, uniquely tense and twisted path from there.”
Chicago Sun-Times – “Just when we think we know where The Gift is going, we’re surprised. And then surprised again.”
New York Post – “A dark and ultimately quite nasty psychological thriller from actor/writer/debut director Joel Edgerton, who manages to yank the carpet out from under his audience a couple of times.”
The Wrap – “Nothing here feels cheap or hasty, which is why the horror, when it comes, is all the more chilling and grim. Slick, sharp and terrifying, “The Gift” is a truly brilliant thriller – and, one hopes, the first of many features from Edgerton to come.”
Some viewers are also just discovering the show for the first time, with one saying on Twitter/X: “Just watched The Gift starring Jason Bateman and Joel Edgerton. SAVAGE karma/revenge movie. Hitchcock level suspense.”
The Gift leaves Prime Video in a few days, but will still be available to rent or buy there, as well as on Apple TV and Google Play.
