Abigail is another fun and entertaining horror-thriller (with dark comedy) from Bettinelli-Olpin and Gillett and is inline with Ready or Not.
Tarot is just another run-of-the-mill supernatural-horror film that doesn’t break any new ground with the well worn genre but worse, has not one ounce of entertainment value with cardboard cutout characters with superficial personalities.

Wednesday: Season 1 arrives on Blu-ray via Warner Bros. on March 26th. This new take on the classic Addams Family centers around Wednesday, played brilliantly by Jenna Ortega, as she navigates high school.
