Critics Consensus

Carrying off well-worn vampire tropes with a balletic flourish, Abigail dances around the familiarity of its premise with a game cast and slick style.

Audience Says

em>Abigail is a little silly, a little scary, and a lot of fun -- just be prepared for a story that takes its time getting going and might go on a little too long.

FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles)

Quite often very funny, but it all runs out of steam... If you want to just go laugh and squirm, you can do that here.

Catey Sullivan

Chicago Reader

This horror-thriller is chaotic and a bit too long, but in the same vein as 2022’s M3gan, it’s ultimately entertaining.

Kristomania (Substack)

"Abigail" continues Universal’s hot streak of telling inventive new stories with their Universal monster characters.

Nathaniel Fetalvero

The New Paper (Singapore)

Despite its pedigree, the film stumbles into clichés and cheap scares, relying heavily on gore scenes and predictable jump scares that fail to evoke genuine dread.

Rated: 2/5

Nestor Bentancor

Nestor Cine Desde Hollywood

A vampire ballerina with excessive narrative contortions that delivers a tsunami of blood, but not "Oh!" positive. (Full Review in Spanish)

Radio Times

Directors Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett are well-versed in horror lore and stuff their film with knowing references, gruesome twists and killer lines.

Rated: 4/5

I really enjoyed this movie. The little girl was convincing as being around for centuries. Nice new take on vampires.

So my honest opinion right? I would have really LOVED this movie if they didnt spoil it all in the trailer. I wanted to be surprised as they were when they found out she was a vampire. Would have made the plot fire. Giancarlo Esposito always doing a fantastic performance!

Rated 3 out of 5 stars
