HORROR MOVIE REVIEW

today, we’re sinking our teeth into something new. Abigail (2024) isn’t your typical boo-fest—it’s a horror–comedy vampire tale with flair, carnage, and a ballerina in a tutu. Picture a kidnapping caper… gone absolutely off the rails.

Story – 7.5 🤖🤖🤖🤖🤖🤖🤖

The plot starts simple: a squad of wannabe criminals kidnaps a 12-year-old ballerina, daughter of an underworld crime boss, aiming for a $50 million ransom in a spooky mansion. No cell phones, no locals—basic overnight babysitting. But shocker: this isn’t a normal kid. She’s Abigail, a centuries-old vampire. Once the kidnappers realize they’ve locked themselves in with lethal prey… things get bloody fast.

Monsters/Villains – 8.2 🤖🤖🤖🤖🤖🤖🤖🤖

Abigail isn’t a cute kid—she’s a ballet-dancing nightmare. Cloaked in mystery and menace, she picks off the kidnappers one by one in ultra-stylized violence. Vampiric hierarchy shows up, too: her crime-lord father looms large, and Lambert, who assembled the crew, may also have fangs. Plot twists cascade like falling dominoes in a mansion full of shadows.

Actors/Characters – 7.9 🤖🤖🤖🤖🤖🤖🤖

Alisha Weir is chilling—her turn as Abigail is mesmerizing, weirdly playful, and outright spooky. She nails that delicate balance between adorable and dangerous. The kidnapper crew’s also a motley joy: Melissa Barrera, Dan Stevens, Kathryn Newton, Kevin Durand, and more bring personality and tension. Lambert (Giancarlo Esposito) pulls strings from the dark, and the ensemble cracks wise while spilling blood.

JOE SCORE- 7.8 🤖🤖🤖🤖🤖🤖
