THE GIFT is a US mystery supernatural thriller, from 2000, in which a clairvoyant becomes embroiled in the murder investigation of a socialite in a sleepy rural town.
violence
Occasional scenes include strangulations and impactful blows using improvised weapons, resulting in bloody aftermath detail. Other moments include a person being set on fire. An unlikeable male character manhandles his wife in front of a child during a scene of domestic abuse, however his behaviour is clearly condemned.
threat and horror
A character with psychic abilities experiences unsettling visions of a supernatural nature; these include jump scares and bloody images.
language
Occasional strong language ('f**k', 'motherf**ker') occurs, as well as milder terms such as bitch', 'shit', 'ass', 'bastard', 'God' and 'damn'.
nudity
Infrequent flashback sequences feature breast nudity, including a woman exposing her breasts in a sexual manner.
additional issues
There is infrequent racist language (‘n****r’), but such language is clearly not condoned by the work as a whole. Scenes include sexualised use of the term 'f**k', as well as references to adultery. There are verbal references to sexual violence, including a scene in which a man confronts his father over the abuse he suffered as a child. Infrequent verbal references are made to suicide.
Contains coarse language and some strong horror and violence
