Director: 
Michael Mohan

SYNOPSIS: 

An American nun arrives at a convent in the Italian countryside. There she discovers that, despite being a virgin, she is pregnant. At the same time, she begins to suspect that something perverse is happening within the walls of the monastery she has just entered.

REVIEW: 

Religious horror without demoniacs or exorcisms, played by the new American movie star Sydney Sweeney who also produces here and is the fulcrum of this film... she is perfect in the role with her angelic face that however in the ending, now a cult of this film, is transfigured thus becoming a great "scream queen" almost on the level of Isabelle Adjani in "Possession".
Bloody tribute to the European horror of the 70s but more interested in the psychological aspect of the genre, it has the merit of showing without reticence the ecclesiastical community as a bunch of opportunistic and false fanatics. Very good direction and certainly superior in quality to many other films of the genre. Worth seeing.

Founders Day

2023

Blood, Masks, and… Democracy?! If you thought politics was already scary enough, Founders Day takes electoral terror to a whole new level. This slasher with a patriotic twist blends elections, mystery, and a masked serial killer sporting a judge’s wig, ready to enforce his own laws… with a bloody gavel! The tone is a mix between Scream and a presidential debate… except here, if you answer wrong, you don’t just lose votes—you lose your head! The performances are surprisingly solid for an indie horror film, with believable young leads and an antagonist who knows how... Read More

The Addiction

1995

Directed by Abel Ferrara, The Addiction is a vampire film that transcends the confines of the horror genre to explore philosophical and metaphysical themes related to sin, addiction and the nature of evil. Shot in evocative black and white, the film is a visceral meditation on the loss of free will and the corruption of the soul. Ferrara uses vampirism as a metaphor for addiction and self-destruction, recurring themes in his filmography. The film is deeply influenced by existentialist thought and nihilism, with frequent references to philosophers such as Nietzsche and... Read More

Burnt Offerings

1976

Based on the novel of the same name by Robert Marasco. A slowly building gothic nightmare, the film is distinguished by an oppressive atmosphere that develops with a slow but inexorable pace. The terror does not come in the form of sudden jump scares, but through a growing tension and a sense of inevitable doom. The house seems to absorb the vitality of its inhabitants, and the mystery that surrounds it becomes increasingly disturbing. A stellar cast and memorable performances, Karen Black is perfect in the role of the mother, who goes from loving and caring to... Read More

My Heart Can't Beat Unless You Tell It To

2020

Unlike typical vampire films, My Heart Can't Beat Unless You Tell It To focuses more on family drama than conventional fear. The tone is melancholic, with a slow and suffocating narration that immerses the viewer in the anguish of the protagonists. The most disturbing aspect is not the violence itself, but the emotional toll that sacrifice and morality impose on the brothers. Jonathan Cuartas builds a claustrophobic and desolate world, emphasizing the loneliness of the characters through dark photography and a clever use of silence. The setting - an anonymous and...

Ghost Stories

2018

Each story has its own visual identity and a different narrative style, reflecting the personal fears of the protagonists. Andy Nyman offers... Read More
