The Convent
“Prayer will get you nowhere.”
Certified Crap. CrapScore 68, rated by 1 admin.
Higher CrapScores mean more entertainingly bad. How we score movies.
Students enter an abandoned convent and encounter demonic possession, incompetent Satanists and a survivor with unfinished business. Mike Mendez uses the familiar setup for sarcastic genre jokes and flamboyant supernatural chaos. A compact adult horror-comedy option with a useful streak of self-awareness.
