Abigail was a Commercial and Critical Success
Abigail received critical acclaim and audiences’ love upon its theatrical release in April. Made on a budget of $28 million, the film earned over $42 million at the global box office. With a Rotten Tomatoes score of 82%, the film has been lauded as one of the year’s best horror flicks.
“After a group of would-be criminals kidnap the 12-year-old ballerina daughter of a powerful underworld figure, all they have to do to collect a $50 million ransom is watch the girl overnight. In an isolated mansion, the captors start to dwindle, one by one, and they discover, to their mounting horror, that they’re locked inside with no normal little girl,” reads the official synopsis of the film.
Abigail is directed by the duo of Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett, who earlier directed Scream 5 and 6. The film stars Alisha Weir, Melissa Barrera, Kathryn Newton, Will Catlett, Dan Stevens, Giancarlo Esposito, Kevin Durand, Matthew Goode, and the late Angus Cloud.
