User Reviews

FANTASTIC film!

I have to agree with another one of the reviewers - this is a MUST SEE film for horror and nunsploitation fans. I was quite wary about it before seeing it, but by the time it ended I knew I would own it one day. I think the saddest part of the whole thing is the Region 1 DVD has zilch for extras.
