The Gift

The Gift

While age may have dulled the initial impact of Sam Raimi's "The Gift," the lightly macabre thriller still makes for an impressive piece of near-horror. Led by a stellar Cate Blanchett, the film revolves around a fortune teller who becomes tangled in a murder investigation. Raimi quiets his usual voice in order to focus on performance and Southern atmosphere, though some of the director's standard creepiness scuttles to the screen. Powered by Blanchett and a strong cast, an engaging mystery, and potent chills, the experience proves robust.
