Il convento - Heretiks

I enjoyed the atmosphere of the movie. The time period felt (relatively) authentic. Persephone jumps out of the fire into an all-together different frying pan.

The store is not original and I wish they explained the back story better, but it is a solid film. I watch a lot of horror and this is definitely not the worst!

My pet peeve - I hate when the scenes are so dark that you cannot see anything. This does happen through most of the film, but the eyes do shine bright.

Fine for people who like horror period pieces with some gore.

Uninteresting and with terrible CGI effects scattered amongst some fair practical effects. Atmosphere is okay, pacing less so. Incomprehensible plot. Gains a couple of stars by having the mighty Michael Ironside (albeit for literally about two minutes; was he just here on holiday?) and Clare 'Hellraiser' Higgins.

I gave the movie a 5 because first off I am extremely hard to please.

I must say I enjoyed this movie and it kept me going throughout. The acting and cinematography was midway but it had a good story line and heck anything with evil Nuns is going to keep my attention.

The downsides were the horrible accents, syntax, and so so costumes but everything else balances all that out.

This is not going to be the greatest movie you will see this year but it is definitely worth the $4.00 rental.

Pure genius with tasteful subtlety. It examines the relationship of religion, God, and Greek life. This movie is only for those who appreciate a slow burn and ambiguity in their films. If you've seen any Mike Mendez film, you'll know what you're in for.

Poor script, poor effects, poor storyline. Generally, a dreadful waste of time. 3 stars is probably very generous.
