I was at Overlook Film Festival for the world premiere of this, with Team Radio Silence in attendance. All I’ll say is: see this movie with a crowd if you can. This movie is an absolute blast, and if you have a crowd to enjoy this movie with you, you’ll have the time of your life.

[@SumDumGy]

Crowds make my movie experience worse, not better. I like the darkness and big screen, not the noise and lit up cell phones/watches audiences bring to the table.

[@sebastiansilverfox6912]

​@@SumDumGy Pretty sure what they meant was that the entertainment value of seeing and hearing the crowd reactions to jump scares and other scenes would outweigh the negatives for this film. I also prefer seeing movies with a mostly empty theater but there are moments where the reactions can be a net positive...though I also will say that this isn't my kind of film.

30 days of night. My husband and i for some reason love this movie. I think a remake with a cruise ship arriving at for the aureus borealis 20 years later would be amazing!

[@Yukosan13]

They have to give away the kid vampire surprise because honestly, this is the pull. If you hid that aspect, then fewer people would be interested, and you'd have to rely on word of mouth 😅 Honestly, I think the idea is fresh, especially for a vampire movie.. like there's a kid vampire in interview with a vampire but they're more side character.. so interesting to see it explored more.

Watched the first minute of the review, and stopped. Not bc it was bad, but bc it convinced me. I need to see this film, and learning more about it could only reduce my enjoyment. So thanks for the review, and I'll be back to watch the rest of it after I've seen the film!

[@robertmarginean164]

There should be a regulation that every single trailer company that makes a trailer for a horror movie MUST watch the Barbarian trailer and make their own trailers in the same spirit. Having watched Abigail, it's extremely easy to see a solid trailer for this film done without disclosing that it's a vampire movie

[@IWF97]

Every year I watch Fright Night 2011 Colin Farrell was great as Jerry, Antoine Yelchin RIP gives my favourite performance of his career, the vamp lore is here and I’ll never stop laughing when I see vamp mclovin

[@brianmoney410]

Just saw it. Very good time. The ending from the control room onward I didn't love, but up to that point it was in the low to mid 90s (rating). Fell off a hair by the end but still highly recommend. I can only imagine what it would have been like watching and not knowing the reveal, but then again, I probably wouldn't have been watching. The other twist was a slow reveal that I thought worked well. That is why Barbarian was one of the greatest movie watching experiences (first act absolutely perfect). If anything had been shown in the trailer it would have ruined that tension and effectiveness. Excellent review JJ. Thanks

[@LoXHumaN]

[@Zulmoka]

To be fair, we do yell at them to give us original ideas. We uh, just don’t expect them to go this far down the rabbit hole lmao

[@DarkcIoud1111.]

Just as a concept, I understand the logic of the plot. Most vampires have someone that handles the day-to-day activities and sometimes even have to find victims for blood. Hiring criminals to kidnap a vampire that looks like a young girl, then trapping the criminals in a house is almost too perfect. Not only are people that have probably done some bad stuff being killed off, but as criminals it would be hard to tell they were even missing if they use fake names or identities for their jobs. People would start to notice if High School QB, Neighborhood Mom, and Class President all started vanishing from the same small town around the same time Mr. Mystery and his daughter rolled into town.

[@how8132]

Looking forward to this! I love "home invasion/survive the night" type movies 😁

From dusk till dawn is my favorite vampire movie and Abigail definitely had some moments that gave the same vibe .

[@Marcell2aG]

Solid flick, I'd say. Characters were all interesting. Pacing was great. I'd recommend it to other horror buffs. I only have 2 critiques though: 1.) Abigail protecting Joey at the end after revealing that she was just playing with her food and bored, that didn't come off as very believable. She was hellbent on killing Joey just minutes before. 2.) I would've loved to see some fight scenes with Rickles before he got murked. He was a frickin Marine Sniper. That would've given us some sweet fight choreography. (P.S., my go-to vampire movie is Blade.)

Even though Frank had a whole 180 for some reason 乁⁠(⁠ ⁠•⁠_⁠•⁠ ⁠)⁠ㄏ, I ended up actually rooting for Frank so he could kill Abigail

[@lessismore8533]

I shouldn’t have watched the trailers as it gave away lot. Still enjoyed it tho, enjoyed the climax. Glad Joey ended up being a final girl. I loved how even after finding out Abigail’s true identity, she kept her Pinky promise. Which is what saved Joey’s life in the end. Love the bind she formed with Abigail. The end fight was Brutal. I was like “man they need to a vampire slayer there to help them”!😂 I want to see more …maybe a sequel or a series.

[@johnsmith-i1n]

I positively luv how Abigail constantly toys with her "captors".

[@AshGCG]

A tale as old as time. I picked up From Dusk Till Dawn in my local Vid shop (Bob Busters) way back when, and the owner shouted at me. "Put that down!!". I turned, smiled and complied. He then asked, "Do you know anything about the film? Did you read any of the box?". Honest answer to both was "no". He then said that I should rent the film and, if I didn't appreciate it, he'd refund me. Whether I did or didn't appreciate the film didn't matter (even though I did), the fact he made sure I went in blind was worth the rental fee. With that in mind, going in to Abigail not knowing that particular piece of information would have been great. A trailer could have been cut around the reveal, I feel.

[@hob976]

Fright Night ( 1985 ) and Monster Squad - You said "playful" vampire movie. Those two are perfection.

I'm glad I completely ignored the trailer for this. All I needed to know was Radio Silence, horror, and I'm in. Made the experience so much more fun

I just saw this movie without seeing any trailers, only a poster, and I thought it was gonna be some sort of Black Swan Jr. but oh my god this movie was such a cool experience with naked eyes. The only reason I suspected something was up with Abigail was due to her being the title character, but vampires was the last thing on my list when I walked into that theater. Great review Jeremy!

Definitely should have kept it out of the trailers because i had so much fun watching it, probably because i never saw the trailer or knew the plot. Also it was just good, good actors, characters, dialogue etc. Little girl killed it too.

Thanks so much for the review! I’ve developed a stigma against movies being heavily advertised over and over (via social media) as often they’re banking on as many people seeing it before realizing it’s shit, so I was worried Abigail was more of the same. But nope - next date night movie found!

[@ndogg20]

Ah yes the ol' plot twist mid film where its revealed there's Vampire(s) involved that you didn't see coming. Surprised me the first time with Dusk To Dawn and got me again with Midnight Mass. Unfortunately for Abigail, you spend half the film knowing what the characters don't, just tapping your toes waiting for it to happen. This was laziness on the part of the marketing team, Dusk to Dawn was also billed as just a kidnap caper btw. There was enough scary bloody scenes in Abigail and with the right fast editing in the previews could have filled a theater without resorting to giving away that the girl is a vampire.

Just saw this and saw no trailers beforehand. This was one of the better movies I’ve ever seen and had no idea the girl was a vampire. Really enjoyed it

Just saw this yesterday and it was a fun movie to watch. Agree with the actors and characters, they made the film memorable.

This movie should have made a lot more than it did. My wife and I just saw it for the first time. I didn't even know this came out when it did. So somewhere they must have failed in advertising. But we loved it. And yeah, the girl who played the ballerina vamp pulled it off amazingly. She made ya feel bad when she was kidnapped, and then was hilariously scary bouncing off the walls as she twirled around chasing people around the house...lol! Good flick.👍🏻

Chris Stuckmann was saying in his review he was mad they spoiled the reveal in the trailer. And I was wondering about that too as I saw the 1000th trailer for it and in his review like yours he mentions that they do a GREAT job hiding she's a vampire in the movie... thing is... I wouldn't have went to see this if I didn't know she was a vampire ballerina... so I'm SO TORN about the ads cause on one hand... it would have been a GREAT surprise... on the other... I would NOT have watched this movie w/o that fore knowledge lol.

I 100% felt the same way about the movie. On the ride home, I even also wished I didn't know she was a vampire going in, but also understand why they had to reveal it in the trailer. As for yearly vampire movie viewings - while The Lost Boys is also a favorite of mine, I love Fright Night (1985) as well. I also enjoyed Fright Night (2011), but the original is one of my favorites.

I get why the trailers and marketing gave away that the film is about a ballerina vampire, but the reveal would have had SUCH a bigger impact if we as the audience didn't already know that going in... The trailers gave away too damn much, but I still had a BLAST.👏🏼

This was shot in the south side of Dublin, I'm from the north side of Dublin, so it was nice seeing familiar places, absolute gem of a movie, and R.I.P Angus Cloud, his career was just getting started, he was going places, such a tragic end to his life, he deserved better.
