The viral marketing campaign for The Crazies was teased a few months ago with two odd websites. Today we received from Intel that will take you deeper into the investigation of Ogden Marsh. For those of you with a lot of time on your hands, read on for info on how to join the fun and to download two Crazies wallpapers exclusive to Bloody Disgusting. Overture Films’ remake, directed by Breck Eisner, arrives in theaters February 26.
Launched this morning is TheTruthAboutTrixie.com.

-The site includes 3 incredibly disgusting wallpapers, videos about Trixie (the chemical that’s mysteriously infecting people), and an email where people can receive the below “hack” for DPChemicals.com.
-Make sure to look at the communication director’s e-mails as they’re updated regularly with creepy insight into what’s happening in Ogden Marsh.
-For those of you who don’t want to do any heavy lifting, the Trixie site has “discovered” the hack into DPChemicals.com. It is as follows: username – jbmartin / Password – p@ssword
-There you’ll find some e-mails that uncover some sort of government operation (Scarlet Omega subject line?), along with other new information to Dakon/Pendrill Chemical Co’s Director of Communications.
-Watch SaveOgdenMarsh.com for something special later this week.
-Soon to be updated: OgdenMarsh.com and OgdenMarshSheriff.com
-The fun also continues on Twitter with @DPendrillJess and @SaveOgdenMarsh

‘Abigail’ on Track for a Better Opening Weekend Than Universal’s Previous Two Vampire Attempts

In the wake of Leigh Whannell’s Invisible Man back in 2020, Universal has been struggling to achieve further box office success with their Universal Monsters brand. Even in the early days of the pandemic, Invisible Man scared up $144 million at the worldwide box office, while last year’s Universal Monsters: Dracula movies The Last Voyage of the Demeter and Renfield didn’t even approach that number when you COMBINE their individual box office hauls.

The horror-comedy Renfield came along first in April 2023, ending its run with just $26 million. The period piece Last Voyage of the Demeter ended its own run with a mere $21 million.

But Universal is trying again with their ballerina vampire movie Abigail this weekend, the latest bloodbath directed by the filmmakers known as Radio Silence (Ready or Not, Scream).

Unlike Demeter and Renfield, the early reviews for Abigail are incredibly strong, with our own Meagan Navarro calling the film “savagely inventive in terms of its vampiric gore,” ultimately “offering a thrill ride with sharp, pointy teeth.” Read her full review here.

That early buzz – coupled with some excellent trailers – should drive Abigail to moderate box office success, the film already scaring up $1 million in Thursday previews last night. Variety notes that Abigail is currently on track to enjoy a $12 million – $15 million opening weekend, which would smash Renfield ($8 million) and Demeter’s ($6 million) opening weekends.

Working to Abigail‘s advantage is the film’s reported $28 million production budget, making it a more affordable box office bet for Universal than the two aforementioned movies.

Stay tuned for more box office reporting in the coming days.

In Abigail, “After a group of would-be criminals kidnap the 12-year-old ballerina daughter of a powerful underworld figure, all they have to do to collect a $50 million ransom is watch the girl overnight. In an isolated mansion, the captors start to dwindle, one by one, and they discover, to their mounting horror, that they’re locked inside with no normal little girl.”
