Ep990: ABIGAIL (2024) - LIVE Round Table Review
Just when Earth's Mightiest Critics thought they'd seen it all, here comes the we-kidnapped-a-ballerina-vampire movie, Abigail!
Six mercenaries are contracted to kidnap the daughter of a crime kingpin. But when these strangers have to spend 24 hours in a safehouse with their new charge, they quickly discover that sweet little Abigail is not what she seems.
Yes, it's "Reservoir Dogs with vampires". But is the latest film from co-directors Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett (Ready or Not, Scream VI) a much-needed transfusion of disparate genres, or an anemic waste of a bloody-good concept?
Join us as we drain every last bit of analysis from this splatterific twist on the heist-hideout flick--and and take your questions, comments, and SuperChats!
