"Variation sur le thème du vampire, Abigail démarre comme un simple enlèvement qui vire à la boucherie dans un ambiance plutôt décontractée puisque le réalisateur essaie d'apporter une petite touche comique de situation ou par les dialogues. Le casting est plutôt bien choisi et offre une diversité intéressante dans le caractère des personnages. La jeune actrice est étonnante. Filmé comme un huis clos, le film procure du coup une certaine tension mais offre aussi ses limites en offrant peu de plans différents. Ce manque de profondeur dans la réalisation amène une certaine répétition de scènes et certains blancs que les personnages ne peuvent combler. Si le début du film annonçait de bonnes choses malgré un thème abordé de nombreuses fois, ce manque créatif sur la fin du film déçoit. Il en reste un film sympa à regarder mais qui aurait mérité une évolution plus tranchante dans le durée."

Synopsis

A group of criminals kidnap a teenage ballet dancer, the daughter of a notorious gang leader, in order to obtain a ransom of $50 million, but over time, they discover that she is not just an ordinary girl. After the kidnappers begin to diminish, one by one, they discover, to their increasing horror, that they are locked inside with no normal little girl.

Community Reviews

Opinions on 'Abigail' are mixed, with some viewers enjoying the blend of horror, comedy, and thriller elements, while others found it lacking in depth and scare factor. The film's unique take on a vampire-themed storyline in a kidnapping scenario intrigued many, but the execution fell short for some, particularly towards the end. The young actress received praise for her performance, and the film's humor was noted, though it sometimes overshadowed the horror aspects.

👍 Young actress's performance stands out.

👎 Ending may disappoint some viewers.

It was so boring and definitely not horror. I didn’t care for any of the characters and they were barely developed.
