I wonder if those guys would've showed up to EVERY nunsploitation film that was made in the 70s.

Certainly well directed and acted. The production design is fantastic. I didn't love the movie and not sure I'd revisit it... but it is definitely worth checking out, especially if you are a Verhoeven fan.

Going to watch this with my parents and relatives before we go to midnight mass on Christmas Eve.

Really liked it. Verhoeven hasn’t done anything this good in a while.

4/5

Looks as nice on Hulu as it did in the theater.

We need Verhoeven to make Satan's Alley now with Maguire and RDJ.
