Some interesting concepts, make the female character dress in 50's style drive a 50's car but have a smartphone on her dashboard, make the dialogue clipped 50's detective in delivery. The story should be good a demonic man collecting the rooms where horrific murders took place and assemble them in the town of New English as a portal to hell. We have a lot of ingredients to make a great film, unfortunately it fails, the plot is overly confusing, the dialogue is awful, there is absolutely no chemistry between the two lead characters and the end is depressingly predictable. I have given a 4 for the concept and at times the cinematography is excellent, shame this is really style over substance.

An investigative reporter teams up with a Police officer to solve the mystery of why a seemingly good man murdered her sister's family. Abattoir could easily make both your time and your money worth something but that unfortunately is where the film looses it's focus and the whole story was pretty bad and although it's very simple i find it hard for me as a viewer to follow the damn thing, the acting was pretty generic although the leading girl alongside the detective weren't that bad but still that doesn't save a mess of a script and story that is very unfocused, boring and unoriginal which brings me to my overall point which is this that the film is just bad it has some good moments and 2 alright characters but still that doesn't change the fact that it's still pretty badly written and directed (4/10)

I seriously wish there was a way to give negative numbers.This movie was awful. Nothing made sense.No consistency, and dragged on and on. You see the older woman from the Insidious movies and get excited thinking wow, this looks pretty good!!//NOPE! The main character although pretty to look at, was annoying. She dressed like a 50s pin up girl, drove an old car, making you wonder what year was this movie supposed to take place / yet had a smartphone on her car dashboard. The "villain" of the movie and the connections to her and the story made no sense and had no consistency. Save yourself some time and don't even think about watching this horrible excuse of a movie.

9/10 LOVED IT! Some may find this too slow a burn at first but once it gets started Abattoir is a unique and enjoyable experience. I liked this movie for a few reasons. One of them being that the director didn't try to copy anyone in his attempts at crossing genres while combining themes from decades all throughout the 20th century until today. If you're a true film lover and have the patience to let this film get going, the second and third act and especially the end will certainly be worth it. This movie delivers an original, refreshing idea not yet scene in the mystery/thriller/horror genre(s). With the level of visual quality and production value overall t looks like this movie was made for $10M. Can't wait for the sequel.
