Traditionally, films that are this delightfully raucous, bloody (and I mean BLOODY), and silly are relegated to B-movie schlock (not a bad thing, for the record), but "Abigail" still embraces the excessive and ornate gothic aesthetics of classic horror movies. The result is an old-school vampire movie with modern frisk and flair and an absolute blast of a movie to watch with a crowd.

It knows its audience and doesn’t waste time. It also heightens the fun with elaborate practical effects, rather than blitzing us with eye-tiring CGI any more than it must.

While there’s plenty to be said about Abigail’s impressively over-the-top scarlet mean streak, the hellride that the filmmakers take us on is all the more effective for the character groundwork laid prior.

Most important: The volume of bloodletting is undeniably impressive and frequently explosive, and the filmmakers effectively employ a lot of creepy remixes of the “Swan Lake” theme.

Abigail is at times a bit too flippant, over-the-top and even protracted in its ridiculous Grand Guignol of exploding “meat sacks,” but it’s very much in line with the unique Radio Silence sensibility, en vogue with audiences right now.

It’s not badly made, just uninspired and played out. If you like B-movies made with a budget and are specifically looking for an undemanding time, “Abigail” might be for you. “Abigail” might also disappoint you, especially if you’re hoping for more than what’s advertised.

The only inspired part of “Abigail” is the performance of Weir, a 14-year-old Irish actress best known as the title character in Netflix’s “Matilda the Musical.” She brings verve and joy to her vampire ballerina, dancing circles around the rest of the cast.

The gore the acting the hurmor the story and little twist that you don't expect. The fight scenes the story of how people can be blinded by money without realizing what they are getting themselves into

More "comedy" than horror. Probably good as entertainment, but certainly not scary. Even the effects are more for comedy than pure horror

It's an enjoyable enough horror movie even though pretty predictable and I didn't even watch a trailer or know anything about it besides being a horror film going into it.

Not a horror movie, but a weak comedy movie. You’ll be wishing everyone to die as soon as possible for being so stupid. Don’t play with your food.

Very annoying characters, not a single one to root for, save for the kid for deleting the bland and superficial cast. Allthe hallmarks of chat gpt are here. The strange, awkward, and obvious dialogue. The amalgamation of tired tropes. Blatantly vomited exposition. Random unearned attempts at emotional gravitas. And worst of all that old thing where characters make baffling choices when they could have eliminated the threat. When the main guy gave the lady that wooden steak i was shocked and confused. I need to stop.
