Granted, I had never heard about this 2023 horror movie titled "Abigail" prior to sitting down to watch it here in 2025. So I didn't really know what I was in for. But the fact that it was a horror movie was sufficient for me to sit down and check it out, as I do love all things horror.
I have to say that I found the narrative to be rather slow paced, mundane and generally not a particularly entertaining one. So writer Gunnar Garrett didn't exactly impress me with his script for this movie.
The acting performances in the movie were good. I was not familiar with a single actor or actress on the cast list, but they had a good cast ensemble in the movie.
"Abigail" is not a movie that makes use of any noteworthy special effects.
If you enjoy horror movies, then this is hardly a movie that I would recommend you to waste 88 minutes on watching. Nor is "Abigail" a movie that I will ever return to watch a second time, as it was a struggle sitting through it the first time around.
The best thing about the movie was actually the cover.
My rating of director Melissa Vitello's 2023 movie "Abigail" lands on a three out of ten stars. And how "Abigail" managed to snag a 5.3 rating here on IMDb, in this very moment as I am reviewing it, is simply beyond my comprehension.
