Young ballerina vampire "Abigail" tiptoes with bloody mayhem in cinemas starting April 17

Alisha Weir and Kathryn Newton in “Abigail”

Kathryn Newton, who starred in “Lisa Frankenstein” and “Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania,” is up against a young hungry ballerina vampire in “Abigail” with Alisha Weir (“Roald Dahl’s Matilda the Musical”) in the titular role for the latest horror hors d’oeuvre movie from Radio Silence, the makers of “Scream” (2022) and “Scream VI.” 

“Abigail” begins with a high-stakes heist, a dangerous mission that, if all goes according to plan, could net six strangers a staggering $50 million. Newton’s character, a hacker named Sammy, is recruited by a sinister fixer along with a ragtag group of strangers that includes a driver, sniper, medic, muscle and the thin man, aka head of ops. Their real identities are kept secret from each other as a kind of insurance – should one of them be caught, that person would be unable to implicate her or his co-conspirators. Together, they must infiltrate the well-appointed home of a reclusive kingpin who presides over a vast criminal empire. After sedating and abducting his pre-teen ballerina daughter, Abigail, they must safely transport the girl back to a remote mansion, then settle in to wait for the sun to rise and the cash to turn up.
