this would of been so much better had the marketing not spoiled that she was a vampire. But it still was very good with the other plot twist.
I agree it would've been cooler not to know, but had they not shown the high concept hook of her being a vampire, it would have been terrible to market it. As it would have just looked like a standard mediocre kidnapping movie, and you wouldn't have nearly enough footage to even use in marketing trailers. The vampire concept was just too integral as a selling point for the film. At least that's how my marketing director brother explained it. And honestly it doesn't take away from enjoying the movie or it's quality whatsoever
Yeah, the teaser was so good. Just having that "I'm sorry for what's going to happen to you " to let you know something was up but not what it was.
These days if I'm interested in seeing a movie at the cinema, I only want to see the teaser.
I agree but I’m not sure what they could have used to fill up that length of the trailer while leaving out such a big part of the movie. I’m sure it’s possible but I can’t think of what they could have used.
(WARNING!! I just finished typing out my reply to you and HOLY SHIT is it freaking loooooong!! I guess that’s what I get for hitting my “computer doobie” so many times and then making my way to the comments section on TH-cam on my day off!! LOL. Please feel free to completely ignore everything I have to say! I’m not even going to go back through and proof read everything cuz I mean… FUCK THAT!! LOL.)
I have some majorly mixed feelings on this take…
First of all, you’re 100% correct about the fact that anyone who went into this movie completely blind _definitely_ had an INCREDIBLE time (As long as they’re into these types of films, of course.) and had even more of a wild ride than those of us who already knew what was up with Abigail for the most part.
However, Abigail being a vampire isn’t only a _major_ part of the movie, it’s the central plot line. So while, yeah, _not_ already knowing that it’s her would’ve made the movie that much more fun, I personally don’t feel like knowing she’s the vampire takes away from the film at all as, again, the “ballerina vampire” _IS_ the _entire_ movie.
Also, I honestly think that them _not_ disclosing the fact that it’s her REALLY wouldn’t have gone well for them advertising wise due to the other options that they’re left with.
I suppose they could’ve just focused on the abduction part of the story in the trailer/adverts but that alone, while still somewhat interesting, certainly isn’t enough to get the vast majority of people invested enough to go see it. Plus, there simply isn’t enough movie that takes place that solely revolves around the kidnapping before the weird shit starts going down. Thus, there was really no way for them to create a compelling trailer using only, what, the first 20 to 25 minutes of the movie. Not to mention the fact that there isn’t enough movie revolving around that part to even make a full trailer out of. _Also,_ I feel like the only people _just_ showing that to who would still be _hella down_ to see it would be fans of Radio Silence/their work thus far. (Which, full transparency, I’d put myself into that camp of folks for sure - for sure! I *LOVED* Ready Or Not, Scream VI, Scream 2022, and _now_ Abigail! Their shit is just RIGHT up my alley!) But those peeps (Or should I say, _us_ peeps? LOL.) obviously, would’ve been excited to watch Radio Silence’s next project no matter how much or how little was revealed in the trailer. The same DEFINITELY cannot be said for the general public.
Aside from them cutting out 90% of the movie for their advertising, they, _obviously,_ could’ve gone the route in which they let the audience know that _something_ is off, without revealing that Abigail is, in fact, that _”something”._ (Which, if I had to guess, is probably the route that you have in mind when you say that you wish that they hadn’t shown us that little Miss Abby is the “Big Bad”, LOL, as that idea certainly makes the most sense!)
The problem with all of that though is the fact that, what is now seemingly being built up as some huge plot twist, is actually INCREDIBLY easy to sort out by anyone who had ANY sort of deduction skills what-so-ever. I mean, kidnappers snatch up an adorable little ballerina and then, all of a sudden, the kidnappers start getting BRUTALLY murdered!!! Obviously, it’s the girl and something is MAJORLY off with her. LOL. (Not to mention the fact that movie is fucking NAMED AFTER HER. Hello, red flag. LOL.)
Even if they had come up with a different name for the film, I still *STRONGLY* believe that _most_ people would’ve been able to figure out that Abigail was the one killing everybody _and_ she was the one with the otherworldly connections. Which, I think anyway, would’ve caused all of these people to head into the film disappointed that they’d already figured out, what they surely believed at this point, the films MAJOR/MASSIVE plot twist! And having people sitting down to watch your film ALREADY BUMMED OUT is _for sure_ “Bad News Bears”. LOL.
Basically, I feel like they were damned if they did and damned if they didn’t! Personally, I *strongly* believe that they made right choice in revealing the fact that Abigail was, not just _a,_ but _the_ vampire. Again, mostly because it is THE plot of the whole goddamn movie.
Having said all of that, however, I 100% agree with you that anyone who got to go into Abigail completely clueless, by far and away, had the BEST experience!! Straight up - I bet that shit was fucking AMAZING!!
I feel because of M3gan, they went with revealing her being a child and included plenty of dancing bits in the trailer
"Sammy! Those are fxxking onions!!"
we need more Melissa Barrera & Kathryn Newton in Horror comedy movies
Well Kathryn was already in Freaky, and Lisa Frankenstein
Yes and she killed it as a Possession Cassie @@TwilightLink77
Exactly! 😍
@@TwilightLink77Freaky was awesome!
Kathryn Newton has been in horror films for years but whatever
I don't know if anyone else has mentioned this, but the reason why they were called Rats is, because their code names were names after the classic Hollywood Rat Pack, Joey Bishop, Sammy Davis Jr., Dean Martin, Don Rickles & Peter Lawford.
I'm old so I knew that.
Except Don Rickles was not a Member of the Rat Pack. They were Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Peter Lawford, Joey Bishop, Sammy Davis Jr., and one woman-Angie Dickinson. I think naming him after Don Rickles was an insult because Don Rickles once said that he was never a member of the Rat Pack but Frank made him feel part of the fun
yeah....nobody picks up on this? Makes me feel old and that wasnt even my era but Ive seen Oceans 11 and you pick it up from that.
This movie was such a fun ride. I hope its audience expands on streaming. This is one I would like to see a sequel to. They clearly had fun making this movie.
Lmfao, what was surprising was when i saw it in theaters, there was like me and 7 other people. At the very end, 2 people stood up and clapped. But for like 2 or 3 because no one else was doing it XD
Same here I went on opening night as well and there was only a handful of people in the cinema with me
I'd really enjoy a tv show, the lore in this is so interesting. Especially the dads Mafia business
@@RedxLilxSleepy If it makes you feel better, Abigail is based upon Dracula's Daughter from the cinema of a 1936 movie. :o
Fun fact: the ballet music used in this movie is Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake, which was used as the score for the Bela Lugosi Dracula.
So glad somebody to see someone else who actually knows classic horror picked up on that nod, it's so great
There's quite a few references to Dracula. In fact, the movie itself is supposed to be a reimagining of the 1936 movie "Dracula's Daughter."
@@codyt821also, the music is Nutcracker main theme
Rest in peace, Angus Cloud.
Whose Angus Cloud?
@Escrima88 The actor who played Dean the driver. He died last year in July.
@@Escrima88oh ❤️🩹 wow poor Angus
Died how
@@Escrima88 he took drugs that he thought were good or something like that
Abigail and Ready or Not: the double future that Radio Silence gift to us 🫶🏻🖤🩸
Their take on couple of Scream movies is great, too.
The dad's actor, Matthew Goode, played another vampire, Matthew Clairmont, the male protagonist of the All Souls Trilogy and the television adaptation, A Discovery of Witches.
So cool to see Draculas famiy seal all over the house, and the opening ballet music was used for the score in the Bela Lugosi Dracula.
“My intuition tells me he’s dead” 😂😂😂😂😂
My brother watched with me completely blind, I was laughing so hard at his reaction 😂
this movie has the perfect cast for a 2024 comedy horror with Kathryn Newton and Melissa Barrera rising as new young modern scream queens for the 2020s
Don’t forget Jenna Ortega joining the ranks of Scream Queens of the 2020s
@@TwilightLink77 sure yeah would have mentioned her if she would have been in here
@@jensrettberg7968 true though she already got a head start with Insidious 2, and Babysitter Killer Queen.
Ngl Dan Stevens makes a perfect villain.
It's a lovely popcorn vampire flick.
But - and I genuinely mean this, and it's actually sort of incredible in many ways - the high point of it all is Alisha Weir.. she absolutely massacred the role of Abigail, in all the right ways. Hopefully she has a long career ahead of her.
I know. Hard to believe that she was Matilda.
That possession dance was my favorite part
DANZIG! \m/
"No fists only needles" Killed me more than I thought lol Y'all had us dying during this reaction! 💜
Abigail father is played by Matthew Goode, who played the villain Adrian from Watchmen
Goode is one of those actors where you know him from somewhere, but just cant pin it down exactly.. he's basically been in tons of awesome shit over the years.. but yes, "Watchmen" is probably the one that sticks out to most people.
knew him from A Discovery of Witches so good!
He looked more like Edward from Twilight.
@@PopStarLegend4365 I think that was intentional.
JAMES
I couldn’t possibly love Kevin Durand’s character any more than I did. That’s what makes radio silence movies special: they make FUN horror that you can laugh at while also being scared.
I love your reaction so much! Rip Angus.
Seeing him almost brought me to tears ❤ this movie was surprisingly really funny and gory! 🩸
Definitely one of the best I’ve seen this year! Thank you for watching it!👍💖☺️
This movie is so good for Vampire Lore. And bloody fun.
I hear that the dad is actually Dracula, and that’s why he says he’s gone by many names
No shit Sherlock, between that, the fangs, and the seal of Dracula all over the house, what clued you in?
@@codyt821 when he said he’s gone by many names, Hellen Keller
Please do Lisa Frankenstein. Deserves more love for sure!
6:21 R.I.P Angus Cloud (Abigail is his final film) 😢
I am obsessed w/ this film. Y’all are hilarious! 😂
And I loved Swan Lake, it's a nod to the 1931 Dracula.
"There's so much blood!" She just ate what do you expect!?
This house reminds me of the house from Resident Evil 8! Sheesh
You should watch Freaky! It’s very good and also has Kathryn Newton
This movie would have been so much more effective if they hadn't spoiled it in the trailer. Still a pretty good little flick though.
You should definitely watch Freaky!!
Elon got huge for this role
Kevin Durand was also in tv series The Strain (2014) dealing with vampires! A very good series.
40:45 She’s in Paranormal Activity 4(2012) and she had some appearances in tv show Supernatural(2005).
I loved Katherine as Claire in supernatural she was brilliant
Also freaky and Lisa Frankenstein
That's a bunch of fking onions, Sammy
That caught me off guard so funny 😂
When Dan Stevens swears, it sounds so smooth and natural.
That lil girl is actually terrifying😅.
Film was so much fun. I do wish the main twist would have been kept a secret though
Abigail Slays ❤
this reminds me of early 00's movie tropes. i love how it didn't take itself too seriously.
Check out blood red sky if you like this kind of vamp
I’m so glad I didn’t see the marketing for this movie.
The marketing should have been Dracula taking them out to save his little girl but before you clicked on the movie didn't you see the little girl with blood
This movie exceeded ANY expectation. Freakin blast from start to finish. Radio Silence is giving us amazing films and I am so here for it.
Awesome reaction as always! 🤘🏻😄
Her dad is Dracula
Kathryn learned to dance in 2 1/2 weeks for the dance scene.
Dedication ❤❤
Giancarlo Esposito showing up had me shook!
15:52 immediately 😂
You need to watch Totally Killer!!!!! It’s like back to the future and scream had a baby
Not sure about the scream part just cause it's a slasher comedy murder mystery doesn't mean scream try I know what you did last summer or Urban legend or curve 😂
Just watched this last night and WOW!
Omg that actor is sweet Matthew from Downton Abbey. 😎
Exactly where I first knew him from lol
This movie is so much fun!
First and foremost, HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY, BRIDGETTE, secondly, that ballerina girl is not only cute, but absolutely TERRIFYING!!!!!😱
I loved this movie so much one of the best this year so far
Freaky is a fun ride 😂
I thought this movie was really good. I love Melissa I really hope she does more horror movies in the future she’s definitely one of my new favorite final girls of this generation. I thought it was a unique twist to a vampire movie so I was just excited to see what it would be like.
I've seen you are you from stab movies
@@damionknox-qx3yq Not from the Stab films!! But I am working on my First Scream Short Film should be out around Halloween 2024 hope you’ll check it out🔪🩸
Yes!!! Loved this movie. 💜💜
OMG I had no idea Angus Cloud was in this😭🥺
Yup his last movie
I like the first and last part of this movie. The middle became nedicore to me when it comes to writing given the tropes provided where they should split up etc. The battle choreography could've been better as well. Although again, I enjoyed the 1st part and last part. Mathew Goode's so fucking sexy. lol. id rate this 6/10
From Matilda Musical to Vampire Ballerina!!
I fcking loved this movie😆
I recognize the Ballet song from The Black Swan incredible movie
word on the street is that Abigail is 1000 years old, in my humble opinion, she should have still been dominating Frank at the end.
rip angus cloud 😪💔he was so funny in this movie
I friggin loved this movie and loved your reaction! I agree that there should have been a way to reveal the vampire either earlier, or hide the vampire aspect from trailers somehow. But I still had a great time and I’m glad you had one too.
Hard to believe that Abigail was once Matilda, in the Matilda the Musical movie. And yes, you should definitely watch the movie Freaked, it is a =nother fun Horromedy.
I saw this movie 🎬 on Friday night here in the Uk at the Bedford cinema, i was completely alone. I liked the story full of twists and turns and the big surprise of this film was Giancarlo Esposito,s performance. The outfit that the blonde actress wore reminded me of Madonna in the 80s.😅😅😅😅😅
Telling my mom how the film went lead me to be confused by one thing:
If killing the vampire cures the victim that was bitten by one, why didn't Frank change back when he turned on Lambert?
Because Frank was already bitten hard and spitting blood, which means he was probably already bitten so much and he already became one vampire, while Joey barely even got turned
I'm a bit sad when Sammy died. Kathryn Newton was my favorite actor.
Me to 😢
The way i died when i realized the actress tht played Abigail played Matilda in the musical👏🏾 ms gurl is booked and busy
Exactly it took her cussing for me to find out 😂 im not alone
Watched this in the theaters was an amazing experience fun movie I suggest u guys do 28 Days Later and 28 Weeks later Please great horror movies
My only regret in life is seeing this trailer before the movie
Yeah they should have marketed it as dracula taking out the people to save HIS LITTLE GIRL and it would have been a surprise
Ahh so excited~!!!!
I think you guys should watch The Lord Of The Rings, Inception, and Breaking Bad
It was good. Saw it in theaters. Should of kept the whole vampire thing out of the trailers. And kept it for the film.
If they did that, the trailer would be literally empty and you wouldn't go to the theater.
pls react to Freaky and Lisa Frankestein 🫶🏻🖤
I’m glade I didn’t run out and see this I love y’all’s reactions
I enjoyed this movie, but thought Ready or Not and Scream VI were better.🙂
Kathryn Newton was also in Supernatural.
And freaky and Lisa Frankenstein
@@damionknox-qx3yq Thats true how could I forget.
Yes, Lisa Frankenstein and Freaky, please watch, please please
Exactly 💯
My favorite vampire movie is The Lost Boys now my second favorite is Abigail and I'm not a big vampire fan either. My mom took my oldest daughter to see it and they loved it. I took my 6 yr old daughter to see it and we loved it. She says I'm sorry about what's going to happen to you and laughs. It's funny when she says it. R.I.P. Angus. When Sammy (Kathryn Newton) turned into a vampire i think she looked like Miley Cyrus lol
This is one of my favorite movies of the year so far
This movie was so fun!
I missed you guys
Sammy & Dean in a Supernatural movie
I fucking love these guys!
Cheers all!!!
This movie was so much fun and entertaining the cast was great tho.And the gore was expected for this kind of movie!I understand the hype now 😂
the dad reminds me of a young peter capuldi
Fun movie! Rip Angus Cloud 💔❤️
What an explosive movie 😅
Ha!
lol I literally just finished watching this WTH
You Guys need to watch Lisa Frankenstein
so nobody got the "Rat Pack" reference?
Sammy, Frank, Dean........
I havent seen 1 review that picked that up.
YAY LETS GOO
This is freaky as heck 😮😮😮😮😮
Please do a reaction to baby reindeer!!
Bless u
You HAVE to watch Freaky asap❤
Hiii! Are you planning to react to the new season of interview with the vampire??
Why does the little girls vampire screech sound like you just started a round of Garrys Mod Murder😂😂😂😂
This movie gives Ready or Not vibes, with a pinch of Case 39.
I would have loved to see it in the theatre, but it only had about three screenings, then vanished.
