    Abigail

    ★★★★

    Abigail further proves that Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett are the director duo to beat when it comes to bloody, fun comedy-horrors. Although its basic premise is nothing new, its plot twists are fairly predictable and the climax could’ve been written more straightforwatdly, the overall execution doubles down on the campiness and goriness the directors have achieved in Ready or Not and brings the story to life while keeping audiences on their toes and maintaining a vibe that’s exhilarating yet…

    The movie, with its overly wordy dialogue, has a confusing plot that takes too long to get its overall point across, and when it does, it would feel too vague. It also lacks interesting characters with redeeming qualities, high stakes and clear resolutions to some of its characters, and the overall…
