Abigail is by far the most overrated horror film this year, I have no idea why there is any hype surrounding this film. It's basically trying to rip off the success of M3GAN by doing the same thing except with a ballerina vampire and honestly, it's vanilla. It's fine but for the first hour I was bored. The characters are uninteresting, Melissa Barerra is as one dimensional and wooden as she is in the Scream series, I have no idea how she is getting as much work in Hollywood as she is, she is not very good at all.
Maybe I'm just not the audience for this film because I've seen quirky horror with vampires done right, It was called Fright Night and it was excellent. This movie is for teenagers who are just starting to get into horror, there is nothing here for me, It's overly silly without being comedic, It's not innovative, It's just plain, bland and predictable and at best sort of ok. Go watch the original Fright Night or John Carpenters Vampires instead.
