Alongside Alisha Weir in the titular role, “Abigail” stars Melissa Barrera, who previously starred in Bettinelli-Olpin and Gillet’s “Scream” films before being dismissed from the saga for allegedly publishing antisemitic posts on social media. Barrera appears alongside Dan Stevens, Kathryn Newton, William Catlett, Kevin Durand, Giancarlo Esposito, and the late Angus Cloud — all of whom were, it seems, constantly doused in fake blood throughout production.

Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett spoke to Total Film about the upcoming feature and claimed that while their previous projects were undeniably bloody, “Abigail” easily wins the prize for the most fake plasma shed. As the duo put it:

“All of our movies are bloody. [But] I would say that this is definitely the most bloody. We spent a lot of time apologizing to our actors on this movie! I mean, blood is in the DNA of a vampire movie, and the amount of blood work in this one is… It’s pretty extreme!”

Despite their enthusiasm for bloodshed, however, the directors did make sure to add, “But it’s still fun.”
