Reviews
This is director Darren Bausman’s most recent feature filmed in 2018 set in the 50’s. A young woman Mary is pregnant and shows up at a convent run by a twisted mother and her by rod or by staff wicked ways...
Two things of note was a moment where one of the pregnant girls was supposedly throwing up due to her pregnancy the mother Superier.., played by Caroline Hennessy a sadistic woman in nature as we find out over time she’s running a black market baby business to partially fill her pockets and feed those living in the church.
Another moment was when one of the girls spoke up about her baby being alive she thinks... The Mother Superior takes and cuts her tong out... ewe and thirdly they starve Mary into trying to believe she is now Agatha... Mary must find away to help get her child, And the rest of the girls to safety before the head Mother Kills her too...
I thought the defiance played by actress Sabrina Kern was spot on although at times I felt she was purulent on purpose. Trin Miller as Paula was wicked as Mother Superiors numero one bun with her listening at the door To run and narc ever time was annoying but I suppose useful to Mother Superior, surprised me with her acting filmography being with those gamer movies that were so awesome from Dead Gentleman Productions.
Altogether I thought this was going to be an exorcist movie I am so glad it wasn’t for I think this was a fresh take on this kind of evil... well done for the budget it had. I recommend.
