Synopsis
Children can be such monsters. After a group of would-be criminals kidnap the 12-year-old ballerina daughter of a powerful underworld figure, all they have to do to collect a $50 million ransom is watch the girl overnight. In an isolated mansion, the captors start to dwindle, one by one, and they discover, to their mounting horror, that they're locked inside with no normal little girl. From Radio Silence--the directing team of Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett behind the terrifying modern horror hits Ready or Not, 2022's Scream and last year's Scream VI--comes a brash, blood-thirsty new vision of the vampire flick, written by Stephen Shields (The Hole in the Ground, Zombie Bashers) and Guy Busick (Scream franchise, Ready or Not). Abigail stars Melissa Barrera (Scream franchise, In the Heights), Dan Stevens (Gaslit, Legion), Kathryn Newton (Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, Freaky), William Catlett (Black Lightning, True Story), Kevin Durand (Resident Evil: Retribution, X-Men Origins: Wolverine) and Angus Cloud (Euphoria, North Hollywood) as the kidnappers and Alisha Weir (Roald Dahl's Matilda the Musical, Darklands) as Abigail. The film is produced by William Sherak (Scream franchise, Ready or Not), Paul Neinstein (Scream franchise; executive producer, The Night Agent) and James Vanderbilt (Zodiac, Scream franchise) for Project X Entertainment, by Tripp Vinson (Ready or Not, Journey 2: The Mysterious Island) and by Radio Silence's Chad Vilella (executive producer Ready or Not and Scream franchise). The executive producers are Ron Lynch and Macdara Kelleher.

As if children weren't scary enough already...
Clay Werner likedAbigail6.7 - possibly the most blood I’ve ever seen in a movie. Acting is solid, though the characters don’t all mesh. The location was under used. And it DEFINITELY should’ve been much tighter down the stretch. But it’s mostly fun, seems to know what it is, & does what it needs to do.
zxki is "meh" onAbigailI actually liked a lot of scenes, but most of it is down to the choreography, cast, and creativity. I didn't like how every plot point was basically ruined by the marketing and how the pace kept switching from slow to fast. The story wasn't really going anywhere, but the performances and comedy…
- The One likedAbigail
The last act was horrible. I also feel that they needed WAY more people so we could see some gruesome kills. Other than that, the movie itself was just meh. Nothing memorable about it to be frank. It pretty much falls short on everything, but it’s an okay watch 6/10
Bongo Review is "meh" onAbigailAwful film but I was entertained. Watch dusk till dawn instead.
jenisa lovedAbigailI loved this movie it was nice balance of comedy and thriller, sooo much blood and bodies exploding so hard that it throws you across the room lol its a funny movie with lots of different characters that are funny and annoying and some that pmo and simply a golden dolg
- Brutalist is "meh" onAbigail
Towards the end the movie doesn’t know if Abigail is a child or more than a hundred years old and it’s embarrassing. Her being a ballerina doesn’t add anything to the story, it’s there to make you laugh because they couldn’t pull off a solid horror movie.
Cinemutt is "meh" onAbigailIt was okay, though I wish I had watched the movie blindly. The mystery might’ve been more interesting if the marketing hadn’t spoiled the main twist. Also, Matthew Goode made a GREAT Dracula. I really want to see more of him if they make a sequel.
Rahma dislikedAbigailWhat even was that ?!!!!!! The most ridiculous movie I've ever watched !!!!!!! I sincerely give it 0/10 it's not worth watching

Best vampire film seen in a while. Left you on the edge of your seat.
MJMr. Jnot enough scares and too cheesy
YGYavett GilbertCould've waited for it to come on Netflix. Got a few laughs

Do it bro, she’ll hold on to you bro!
BGBruce GouletI believe this could lead into a easy sequel.Ironic the real life character and in the movie played a drug addict that actually died in real life from a addiction
MFMike FieldsI was expecting a true horror film. Instead I got some jump scares! But overall it was a horror-comedy.

creepy kids vampires are unsettling in general. Somehow, making them a ballerina is even more unsettling. Girl moves with a grotesque grace that is super compelling. Add to that a kidnapping gang on a bad gig, and it's super unique. Seen a lot of Vamp flix. This one is…
MCMadolin CracoliciA good watch! Kinda campy which I’m a fan and loved the all actors and actresses in the movie
EEEliana EscobarMy daughter and I loved it a lot I recommend had funny parts in it to especially the Asian guy lol 😂

It’s not that Abigail is terrible: all its pieces slip together where they should, but its for all its excessive violence and gore it is a dull, lifeless experience.

The acting, practical and special effects and production design are all superb. The script is repetitive, tedious and a whole lot of ho-hum.
