>One of the truisms in film calendar slating is that it’s a real plus to be the first new horror film released in a while. With the weak opening of Universal’s “Abigail” this weekend, the inverse also seems to hold.

This is my favorite strawman. I've never heard anybody actually say anything like this.
do you live under a rock? Probably a billion lefties will screech at you if you express dislike of disney or taylor swift
Nobody is doing that. And they're especially not doing it because "think of the poor multi billion dollar company". You're just making up scenarios to use it as strawmen.
LOL LMAO EVEN
just look up the sony vs xbox wars on twitter, or the marvel morons that shit their pants if you shit on their movies
>twitter
When will you gays learn that nobodies opinion on Twitter doesn't fricking matter?
Yes, deranged fanboys will get mad if you shit on their favorite things, but it has nothing to do with the company that makes them.
do you interact with people in real life? They do this all the time
>Nobody actually says anything like this

Gaslight me harder daddy!

Go back to twitter, troony.

Weird insult, but ok.

bros… my ABGL stocks…
When the output has become so universally mediocre all you can support is collapse and hope something better is built on the ashes.
>le spooky 10 year old
Awful concept
The trailer made it look pretty good. It's whether the comedy aspect works or not.
>The trailer made it look pretty good.
not really
It looked like it had one okay concept padded out to two hours. They would've been better off trying to sell this as a comedy or emphasizing that it was from the guys behind that other horror movie.
>kid is a vampire that gets loose (but only inside a mansion and at night)
If you think this idea is good you have brain damage
Kat newt bros… it’s not fair
Her career is in shambles
Melissa Barrera is finished after this movie too, it's jehovah...
>e-girl vamp attacks
>c**t punt her
>movie ends
Me on the toilet after eating Taco Bell
It's a fun but cliche movie, but the ending is also a complete cop out that doesn't make any fricking sense.
Film has over 80% on both critics and audience on RT, so it's apparently good.
>Film has over 80% on both critics and audience on RT
Meaningless.
Losing all those shitty 3-5 screen theaters that were only 15 minutes away is fricking the studios more than they expected when they accelerated it
better to turn those into something else anyway
It’s burgerland, they’ve been turned into abandoned buildings used as tax writeoffs
For anyone wondering it wasn't bad but it has a really hacky ending, my guess is they were going for a sequel hook so they suddenly turned Abigail into a hero.
a sequel hook doesn't work because vampires don't age but the young actree who plays Abigail is going to look like a completely different person by next year
Well if it ain't a sequel hook then I can't explain why this little girl who was tearing everyone apart suddenly is a weakling who has to team up with Melissa Barrera to fight another vampire who has no special abilities or anything, it was truly moronic.
I think it was just the writers/studio being too pussy and politically correct to make a little girl the villain, they have the pass the buck to the white guy
Imagine my shock.
Woke writers who can't make women bad
man bad woman good
it's the narrative in almost every horror movie for the past decade, I know cinema in general has become full of girlboss nonsense but horror has been hit the worst. I'd describe it as outright misandrist at this point.
>ughh why is a little girl vampire weaker than an adult man vampire 10 times her age?
What the FRICK did you mean by this you fricking moron?
How kind the woman is to Abigail starts affecting her from their very first scene together
DId you miss the obvious part where she was drained by Stevens and only then decided to team up?
She's a vampire, couldn't she just shapeshift into a more adult looking form?
terrible marketing
like the 4th big horror in the last month or so
R rating
positive critic and early review but the trailer hook is just vampire ballerina slasher for 1hr50m
tough sell
unless there is a bonus twist that they didn't reveal in the trailer, then of course it bombed
there is a bonus twist but it's really lame and makes the movie even more boring and predictable
>truisms
>We need to make another "girlboss" film....hmmm......I know, we'll make her a VAMPIRE...and she'll kill all the bad men and team up with another girlboss!
>BRILLIANT!
Pass.
>scary possessed little white girl film #1392
Shocked that it flopped. Perfect time to shake things up and drop some spooky niglet and troon kino
I was going to go see it in theaters, but decided against it.
ill be watching for one reason
yuck
Mid
She has nude scenes out there, full tit and ass.
>Vampire e-girl movie
>I'm totally watching it for one of the roasties
must be cool to be a pedophile homosexual. you can act cool about it here, but you know you can't admit it in real life because you will be shunned and hated. hopefully you die very, very soon.
lol! you argue like a woman, no wonder you simp for them. getting that angry at him shows how incredibly insecure you are
>Budget $28 million
>Box office $29 million
What do you mean bombed, it made one million.
>it made one million.
On average, studios earn about 50% of worldwide box office earnings, so $29 million dollars would earn them about $14.5 mil. Combined with any marketing costs means they lost money and will have to try to make it up in after release deals.
>horror comedy
jeez maybe they could have said was a comedy instead of having a trailer where it just looks like not very good horror
>another Dracula movie bombed
Universal can’t read the room can it?
>start dark universe planning cool concept of shared monster action
>cancel it after mummy movie "bombed" earning 409m on 125m reported production budget
>move towards shitty standalone films nobody gives a crap because theres already plenty of standalone horrors
>all of them together can't even reach half of mummys box office numbers (invisible man 140m, renfield 25m, demeter 20m, abigail 20m - all together barely passing 200)
JUST RESTORE GODDAMN FRICKING DARK UNIVERSE. YOU moronS. YOU HAVE MOTHERFRICKING THEME PARK FOR DARK UNIVERSE SO BRING DARK UNIV7MOVIES BACK
'jak it
i hate that adults have to be scared of this little kid. if i was in an actor in this movie, i would play it cool until my fight scene with this kid. i wouldn't hold back and would beat the frick out this kid. scumbag israelite producers can put that in the movie instead of some bullshit about "tough little girls"
Why didn't twitter leftists went to support Melissa?
Serves them right for scrapping Dark Universe. This movie was planned as Dracula's Daughter before they changed approach to this mess.
They casted literally no well known actors and there's no capeshit what were they expecting exactly ? It had streaming service written all over it
They though the bawd from scream was a box office draw
it honestly makes me baka when these producers think they can make a decent profit at the kinoplex and kind folk like me just wanna watch it for free of charge from the streaming cucks. I'm glad it bombed
I hate you underage fricks that can't even get to the kinoplex
>The project was originally titled Dracula's Daughter, the same name as the 1936 film upon which it is based;[9] with Universal restating that while they had considered a singular continuity with The Mummy (2017), each release will continue to be "rooted in the horror genre, with no restrictions on budget, rating or genre.
Dark Universe meltdown continues
Not my fault I saw it 3 times in theaters. Third time i was sneaking in after watching Alien though
Also all you torrenting gays are homosexuals.
Never heard about this movie. I just watched the trailer and it looks really bad.
Too much brown girl, not enough Newton.
Movie gets what it deserves.
Don't horror comedies flop 95% of the time anyways?
Normies want either max gore "shocking" movies like Terrifier or ultra jumpscare only ghostshit
Abigail was way better than what I expected, fast paced, gory, fun, doesn't take itself seriously.
Way better than something like Megan for example which was mid as frick yet made 5x the box office
Abigail was so good and then of course that shit ending had to happen. They can't help themselves
could have been kino without the forced quircky shit and a late teen girl among some other changes, good idea wrong target demo
Universal is just moronic. These movies are flopping because nobody knows who the frick Renfield or Abigail are. If they had just called them "Dracula's Servant" and "Dracula's Daughter," then they would have done better. Everyone knows who Dracula is. Thankfully he's a public domain character, so anyone can make Drackino while Universal keeps fumbling him.
Nosferatu is our only hope of dracula redemption
Sorry thread is kill
its still flop. yeah passed renfield and demeter but still dead in the water. and guess whatm, it was another subtle not-so-sublte attempt to set dark universe in motion
>There is already some groundwork for how Abigail could relaunch the Dark Universe thanks to the world it sets up. Abigail's father is designed as a stand-in for Dracula, and the movie includes enough teases that he is the proper version of the legendary vampire for Matthew Goode's character to take on that role in future installments.
universal is moronic. worst of all, they have no plans for monster franchise whatsoever despite the fact that dark universe land is almost ready to open
Watched it and it was pretty mediocre. Had some funny and memorable bits though and it was better than Renfield at least.
it was fine for what it was
someone said no one will go see an original horror movie like this meanwhile the french horror livid is about thieves being hunted by a vampire ballerina
