I passed this one up originally because I'm not too into the "creepy nun" sub-genre. But the trailer looked good so I picked it up. It exceeded all my expectations and is a very fun horror flick! It has a great buildup to the eventual reveal of the nun, which is so effective that you wonder if she's even bad at first or if she's even a real thing. And then...bam! The dialogue is actually well written and funny. It's got an old school vibe to it at times and is set in a creepy and atmospheric abandoned jail. The pacing and suspense was very well done and I absolutely loved the ending which was a little different than I expected and way better than the usual way this genre wraps up. I'm so glad I got this one and will show it to my friends now. If you haven't seen the trailer, don't watch it as I think it spoils some of the reveals and buildup that are much better earned from the natural tension in letting the film unfold. A director I'm going to watch for what's next.
