The Nun (2018)

Director: Corin Hardy

Starring: Demián Bichir, Taissa Farmiga, Jonas Bloquet

A priest with a haunted past and a novice on the threshold of her final vows are sent by the Vatican to investigate the death of a young nun in Romania and confront a malevolent force in the form of a demonic nun.

Although the film is called ‘The Nun’, the nun demon only makes a guest appearance in the film – so to speak. The film has a lot of potential that leads to absolutely nothing. This was not scary. It wasn’t captivating. It wasn’t unique. It was just completely bland. The actors tried their best with the little they had to work with and ultimately I can only complement the make-up and visual effects teams.

Nothing about this film worked for me. Utterly forgettable. I’ll stick to ‘The Conjuring’ films, thanks, instead of this spinoff…
