    Anybody who’s watched Legion on FX knows that Dan Stevens is INSANELY talented as an actor who can do everything from serious to hilarious.

      @jcaashby3 หลายเดือนก่อน +28

      Somehow someway I feel someone could have edited the trailer to still be GOOD and interesting without giving away that she is a vampire. When I saw the trailer I was interested but as soon as I saw literally what she was my interest dropped a lot!!

    • @JokerCrowe
      @JokerCrowe หลายเดือนก่อน +24

      It's tricky though, because some people would probably be disappointed then, since they were expecting a thriller drama about a kidnapping, and not a monster movie.
      I think the best way to do it would be to show that there's something "wrong" with the situation, or Abagail, but not explicity say that she's a vampire.
      But then, I guess people might think it's an "exorcism" movie... Marketing movies is hard.
      But I still might check it out, despite knowing she's a vampire, so maybe the marketing did it right anyway?

I’m glad barbarian did the trailers how it did because watching that movie in theaters was some of the most fun I’ve had in a long time watching a horror movie and a lot of it is because I had no idea where the movie was going due to the trailers revealing so little.

    i think that the marketing wanted to lean on the fun and wacky side of it and stay away from "twists" since we're kind of getting tired of that and sometimes we should watch movies just for fun 🤷🏽‍♀️ i bought my tickets a while back and support Melissa Barrera on this project 🇲🇽🍉

      This is from my view, Abigail found a light of hope and realization from Joey that even though she's centuries old, deep down buried inside her is still a 10 year old girl who was turned by his own father and never got to experience what a normal child is nor be loved by a father as any father would normally do. That's why on the last clip where his father arrived who was about to munch on Joey but Abigail stood upfront and realized his daughter through her eyes that she was still a 10year old girl inside despite being immortal for more than centuries. Thus I could understand your sentiment how Abigail suddenly became goody goody because I feel like there're so many cut scenes that could've answered your sentiments as to how she became a last minute protagonist. For me though, as someone who's got a very high standard for movies and series, I'd give this movie an 8, probably because this is by far the only Vamp movie this 2024 but also the only vampire movie within the last 5years that has a story that would leave you intrigued on their vampire back story on how it all began and how it went. I hope this gets chance of a sequel if not a prequel.

    The movie was stuck in a difficult position because it would have been great if they didn't reveal the 'plot twist', but they knew it might not have sold tickets if people thought it was just another jump scare kidnap film. I can speak for myself and say I wouldn't have watched it had I not known the girl was a vampire. That would have been a shame because I would have missed experiencing one of the best films I have seen quite a while. The young actress put on one of the best performances I have seen in years.

    For a blind person when we come across a trailer like this, it’s actually a good thing they marketed it this way.

    As time has gone by my Outlook on spoilers has shifted. I used to not want spoilers, go in mostly blind, and let the movie unfold. But I have found lately that the anxiety or the suspense of worrying about certain plot points horse story lines to tracks from the overall experience of enjoying the movie. Often I will read a full synopsis before going to see a film just so I can not worry about those things and enjoy what the filmmakers have produced for me.

    Kevin Durand always delivers. He can be comedic, he can be intimidating, he can be sleazy, he can be sympathetic. Just a chameleon of an actor who doesn't get enough recognition. Maybe he's selective with his roles, idk. But he is definitely one of the top underrated performers of the last 20 years.

I dont wanna pay to go see a movie I know whats going to happen like 30 minutes in. Ive noticed lately trailers are giving to much away that it either says that 1, there arnt any decent people working in the industry with any real experience in their jobs, or 2, these studios do not have faith in their projects or trust in the audience.

    One of the best movie-going experiences I had was In Bruges. I went alone to the theatre not knowing what I wanted to see or even really what was playing. I saw the poster for this starring Colin Farrell, Brendan Gleeson, and Ralph Fiennes that said "Shoot first, sightsee later" and that was the first I'd heard of the movie. Then Colin Farrell's opening monologue hits over a dark screen and ends with "It's in Belgium" and from that point on, I had a fantastic time.

  • @vincedude0458

    This movie was so much fun. Probably won't appeal to everyone though. The trailer definitely spoiled the "surprise", but I still enjoyed it. I would have enjoyed it a little more if I didn't see the trailer. I agree with you that some trailers, like Barbarian, are smart enough to give you enough not to spoil it. My advice: if there's a horror movie you're anxious to see in theaters based on buzz, word of mouth, ect,...avoid the trailers/reviews, take a chance, and go see it. Hopefully you'll enjoy something about it. Remember...not all horror movies are created equal. You're gonna see some great ones like the recent Late Night With the Devil...and some bad ones like The Nun 🤣. I did watch some early teaser trailers on TH-cam for the new upcoming horror movie Longlegs because I couldn't help myself, and luckily there isn't too much revealed. However, one of the trailers before I watched Abigail in the theater was a longer trailer for Longlegs. I was like "NOPE! UH-UH!" and I just kept my head down the whole time 🤣. I'm hoping that movie is good. It kinda has a creepy Sinister/Se7en vibe to it. Here's to a continued great 2024 for horror fans...CHEERS! 👻😈💀

I wasn’t sure if there was any supernatural things in the movie. After some time I thought it could be an inside job. A few moments later I thought Abigail was working with the killer in some ways. But since Abigail was still in the room, I then thought there is supernatural stuff and Abigail is strongly connected to the point she did one thing or another
