Melissa Barrera Is Bloody Terrific In This 83% Rotten Tomatoes Movie on Peacock

in Abigail

It’s fair to say that 2024 has had no right to hit so hard with horror films. So far this year, we have been back to the ‘80s with Lisa Frankenstein, took our seats alongside the doomed audience of Late Night with the Devil, canceled our birthday plans thanks to Longlegs, and, most recently, enjoyed an absolute “wtf” moment with everyone else in the theater during the last 20 minutes of Alien: Romulus.

Serving as the latest title to come from Universal’s modern-day adaptations of the studio’s classic monster features of yesteryear, Abigail hearkened back to the 1936 movie, Dracula’s Daughter. In it, a group of professional kidnappers with no ties to one another have been tasked with ransoming a young girl overnight in a mansion. At first, the mission seems fairly easy as the well-trained group essentially just needs to wait out the night until the money is delivered.

Known for their work in the fifth and sixth installments in the Scream franchise, as well as Ready or Not, Bettinelli-Olpin and Gillett absolutely crushed the vision for Abigail. Blending comedy with horror has always been the pair’s bread and butter, and they delivered ten-fold for the Universal picture.

Melissa Barrera: A Modern Scream Queen Close After working with Radio Silence on Scream and Scream VI, Abigail marked the third time Barrera would team-up with the directorial duo. While we’ve loved seeing her in the drama series Vida and in the on-screen adaptation of the musical, In the Heights, there’s no denying that Barrera’s presence in horror films is an incredibly special one.
