Review of Abigail

Abigail (2024)
6/10
[6.2] Kidnappers are like stranded swimmers in an open ocean
5 May 2024
A mild horror thriller movie that starts off good, promising with reasonable amounts of thrilling anticipation, but derails pretty quickly as soon as the "big" reveal is shown and figured out, all despite the near superb acting by Abigail character, the young, smart, charismatic and talented Alisha Weir.

The production is entertainingly generic and all the kidnappers, but one, deserved a blood-sucking fate, potentially leaving Abigail "hurt" and "injured" with plenty of room for a sequel as she grows up and goes to college with newly turned baby vampires.

Seriously, I expected more from it, more gut-wrenching real horror with a more robust ending that as it is, feels pretty weak.
