August 10, 2010Well despite afew decent actors involved ( Gleason, Henriksen, McCoy) this is total B-movie fair. It takes AGES to actually get to the point of the film which is simply a Bigfoot type creature running around the woods and killing some sexy girls and afew other guys in some remote... read more

August 25, 2007Bloody atrocious remake of Rear Window with a Sasquatch thrown in. Yep that's right. I suppose it's quite entertaining to see a cheap horror film try something new but by mixing it up with one of the masters of suspense you just have to laugh at the absurdity. McCoy is far too se... read more

December 31, 2011Like a remake of Rear Window except with a monster. Normally these made for syfy channel films are complete shit but Abominable scores big in the "nice try" category and I'd be interested to see how these filmmakers would handle a bigger budget and a better cast because they rea... read more

September 25, 2011This movie is very slow paced. Very. The creature looks very fake. It has very stale acting. But that doesn't stop this gorefest to being a very awesome yet graphic horror movie.

February 16, 2008Low budget horror movie. It is Rear Window+Bigfoot blend. The acting is not good but has a couple of cool moments and death but for the budget it was well done.

February 3, 2007I liked quite a bit. It took a while to get going, but when it did, it was non-stop. Some good deaths as well. I also liked how they combined Rear Window with the Bigfoot genre. A lot of fun.

February 27, 2012fb1414891016For a movie I saw on the SyFy Channel, I am surprised that it kept my attention the entire time (barely). But plot holes and conventional horror cliches keep Abominable in a laughable category, which would not have been a bad thing if Ryan Schifrin was going for that image. Too... read more

January 22, 2012It's pretty silly and campy at times, but the creature is fairly convincing for the most part and there's a nice shower scene featuring the always lovely Tiffany Shepis, who I absolutely adore. The Matt McCoy lead has a distractingly Steve Carrell look to him, so I kept expectin... read more

July 2, 2011First time director Ryan Schifrin also wrote this direct-to-Scy-Fy monster movie about a paraplegic confined to a cabin in the mountains. He witnesses a monster attacking a young girl in the cabin next door and decides to get involved. Schifrin managed to get Jeffrey Combs, Paul ... read more

You keep looking for a sign that its young writer-director, Ryan Schifrin, is going for a tongue-in-cheek romp. But no, he seems to be deadly earnest.

John Anderson, Variety
Not only are slasher/horror/splatter films enjoying a sharp spike in popularity, right now they're also where one can find the best comedy. Full Review

Brian Holcomb, Beyond Hollywood
To say that "Abominable" is the best movie ever to premiere on a basic cable channel is degrading both to the movie and to Bigfoot. Full Review

Excels in spite of the major plot holes, mainly because it has such an entertaining attitude about itself... Full Review

Abominable is a rip-roaring monster movie, and it doesn't try to be anything else. Full Review

Andy Klein, Los Angeles CityBeat
It has the requisite number of scary moments, but, as is often the case, keeps the jeopardy up by having people behave inexplicably stupidly.

Scott Weinberg, eFilmCritic.com
An entirely familiar yet slyly entertaining little throwback to the days of Grizzly, Pumpkinhead, and Prophecy -- with a big dose of Rear Window tossed in, just to amp the tension up a little. Full Review
