Scaregivers Trailers

Two bumbling crooks are caught stealing a couple of diamond rings. Rather than get sent to jail, they convince the judge to send them to a mental institution instead. But the asylum turns out to be a haunted place, and the two are left to uncover the secret behind the paranormal mysteries that lead to the deaths of the staff.

Reviews
ChampDavSlim The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.
Claire Dunne One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
Janae Milner Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.
Ezmae Chang This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
Leofwine_draca SCAREGIVERS is a broad comedy horror flick from the Philippines and shot in Tagalog. It's a silly piece of guff about a goofy couple of guys who indulge in cross-dressing and the like. They also happen to be bumbling crooks who are caught and shipped off to a mental institute after their latest attempt at a crime. While there, they discover the place is haunted and attempt to solve the mystery of the haunting. The film is too cheap for much in the way of supernatural stuff, but there's plenty of hapless comedy and overacting from the two leads. Some of the OTT humour is similar to that found in Hong Kong cinema (e.g. the MY LUCKY STARS films) although not as slick or amusing.
