The Nun 3 is certainly on the cards now, isn't it Michael Chaves... 🪑🛁
The burden of expectations can be overwhelming even for the most resilient of individuals, the more you prove yourself the heavier the load. Such is the case of Narcisa, a girl who was considered "Holy" ever since she was a kid, living in a time and a community where religion was considered a major aspect of everyone's life, it became suffocating for her, forcing her to constantly move from one place to another in search of peace leading her to a convent where she will be tested to the core. For Narcisa it's not just about finding her faith but also about accepting her fate as…
The Nun (2018) was found dead in a ditch!
Gorgeously shot and skin-crawl inducing, Sister Death once again showcases Paco Plaza's expertise in horror genre. He is a sharp stylist who knows how to meld dreadful imagery with actual ideas that make his horror films more than just exercises in goose-the-audience manipulation. One of the more authentically scary horror thrillers to haunt the screen in some time, a product of smart filmmaking, intriguing premise and a great lead performance from Aria Bedmar. This is overall scary, and it features some rather well-executed haunted house imagery that will certainly get under your skin.
Whatever freaky demonic shit happens in convents is frankly nun of my business.
This is just the sisterfication of The Conjuring, and I will have nun of it.
Pretty spooky film, from its creepy and scary imagery to the overall vibe with some great cinematography to accompany. Performances are also really good; everyone delivers, especially our two main stars (the little girl and the novice or nun), namely Bedmar. She really goes a little far and beyond your average horror flick in conveying the sense of despair, sorrow, and horror that evades her. The music also does a great job of setting up the vibe; there’s an almost funeral-like and grim feel to it.
Sadly, I spent most of the movie confused on how the heck it connected with Veronica and the story wasn’t that tight. Sometimes I just get a little lost in what is going on.…
Here's a spooky horror flick that came out of nowhere (or, you know, Netflix). It was only ninety minutes and I figured it might be bad, it'd probably be generic, but it wouldn't take too long to watch. So I hit play and those ninety minutes flew by.
Sister Death is s a pretty generic-sounding Spanish film if you read the synopsis. A sister joins a convent only to discover its dark, haunted past. It's solid, atmospheric, and almost old fashioned ghost story.
If spooky nuns and convents are your jam, then watch this flick. It eats The Nun films alive (and I kinda sorta, maybe liked The Nun 2).
The flick has a spooky vibe with some decent scares…
well would you look at that.. i took the majority of the day off from work once again bc i can and i deserve it. what i don't deserve is me forcing myself to sit through films like this.
