Abigail (Alisha Weir) seeks revenge on her kidnappers in the most recent vampire horror comedy, "Abigail."

Directors of ‘Abigail’ craft a delightfully devilish dance of horror

By Sarah Payne, Staff Writer April 29, 2024
In an era where movie critiques and visual essays analyze every frame of a film, artistry is often the priority. While creative in its own right, “Abigail” is a film that focuses on fun — and the watching experience is significantly better for it. The slightly comedic vampire horror/thriller movie was first released April 19. 
"Lisa Frankenstein," released Feb. 9, tells the story of Lisa Swallows (Kathryn Newton) and The Creature (Cole Sprouse) as they seek revenge.

“Lisa Frankenstein” all in all is a campy, nostalgic film that fits right in with our most adored ’80s films. For anyone wishing they could time travel back to 1989, back to the days of iconically crimped hair, styled with scrunchies, timeless pop ballads and the occasional undead revenge plot, “Lisa Frankenstein” is the perfect film. 
An unexpectedly genuine comedy, "Blockers" follows three parents as they try to stop their teenage children from having sex on prom night.

“Blockers” is a good movie. Yes. You read that right. The film that features butt chugging, sex pacts and vomit is nuanced and emotionally resonant.
After Mildred's (Frances McDormand) daughter is murdered, she antagonizes the local police chief, Willoughby (Woody Harrelson) until he solves the crime.

Review: Murder mystery is biting and bitter drama

By Aidan Lentz, Staff Writer December 6, 2017
Despite its harsh and cynical tone, this is a movie about finding joy and letting go of hate.
