I agree with your daughter. She's very wise. I liked the film, but it could have done with a bit more scariness.

reply

A BIT MORE SCARY AND A BIT MORE KEVIN DURAND AND IT COULD HAVE BEEN LEGENDARY.

She’s one smart cookie.

Great film, I think I gave it a 8/10 as well

reply

It was one of the best MCMC podcast films we did.

reply

Did anyone recommend "Ready or Not" (2019)? I checked the list in the link and didn't see it, but maybe I missed it. Anyway, it's similar to "Abigail" as it takes place in one big mansion.

reply

WE WATCHED THAT RECENTLY OVER HERE....SOLID FLICK...HAS A SIMILAR FEEL TO ABIGAIL FOR SURE...MINUS THE VAMPIRES.

reply

I didn't want to give too much away for anyone who hasn't seen either.

reply

I shall add it 👍

reply

I would've probably enjoyed it more IF they didn't spoil the "twist" of who/what Abigail was in the damn trailer.

My lil sister enjoyed it way more than I did. Mostly cause she had no idea what the movie was about beforehand.

reply

Luckily I didn’t see the trailer.

reply

AWESOME....ONE OF THE BEST FILMS OF LAST YEAR HERE TOO.

reply

I liked that it was a bit different.

reply

If you haven't seen it then check out Late Night with the Devil (2024). I think both of you will like it.

reply

Cool - added 👍
