Reviews:
“Humbug is a fun short, one with an original idea that is played for cheesy laughs but doesn’t skimp on the gore & bad language. Scarlet & Betty are polar opposites but play off each other well, the Christmas references making Betty seem way more unhinged then she actually is.” Games, Brrraaains & A Head-Banging Life
“Minimal special effects, but pretty well done. Score and sound are on point. If you truly hate Christmas, you may not like how this ends. If you like Christmas, then maybe you won’t like how it ends, either.” Horror News
“A wonderfully dark and macabre Christmas-themed comedy, based on a humour that’s just silly enough to not drift off into the moronic and a story that really sets its surprises when one least expects them, and carried by a directorial effort high on Christmas camp…” Search My Trash
