Hey everyone, Radio Silence's latest film Abigail has hit theaters! I've always enjoyed vampire flicks but more importantly, as I've been saying for years, I LOVE horror-comedies and Radio Silence seem to be doing a great job of keeping that blend of genres alive with Ready or Not, their two Scream films and now Abigail. So, is Abigail an instant classic of the vampire subset of the horror genre or is it a generic, disappointing one? Find out in this review!
