Sabrina Accomplishes the Incredible Feat of Being Almost Completely Scare-Free Sabrina’s attention span for its own story is scant. Soon thereafter we’re drowned in head-scratching supernatural mumbo jumbo before returning to the haunted doll idea. But that idea is forgotten an hour into the movie. They even managed to find a doll that looks uglier than Chucky. For the first 30 minutes or so, Sabrina looks like it wants to be a mix of Annabelle and Ouija.
