Title: The Nun (2018)
Post by: Olivia Bauer on September 23, 2018, 09:30:04 PM
The Nun is so bland and cliche I may as well have been staring at a wall for an hour and a half.
I got nothing new from my viewing experience. I knew it was going to be bad, I was just hoping it'd be funny too.
It was a little funny at times but mostly just made me roll my eyes. Every dumbass horror cliche is in this movie.
Only reason I went to see it is because nothing good was in theaters.

There's not much more I can say about the movie. It's bad, bland, cliche, and a complete waste of my time.

2/10

Please tell me she strangled at least one of her victims with a rosary. Nuns are always doing that.

She strangles someone but I don't think she used a rosary. She did that one-handed choke thing you've seen in 1,000,000,000 other movies.

A film that is critic proof. Opening at best to mixed reviews, it still clawed its way to #1 at the box office here in the U.S. A film without legs, but still popular enough, we'll see another one in that series.

Without legs, because the next week Predator surpassed it at the American box office. Another film that was critic proof. Another film without legs. Yet again, popular enough we may see another film in that series.

A film without legs, because the next week it was surpassed at the American box office by The House with a Clock in Its Walls. And we'll see whether that film has legs.

Not a film I am interested in seeing, but there was one moment in the trailer, which caught my ear. Warlock. While Warlock is the commonly accepted term for a male witch, it is not universally accepted as such. I have read some people prefer the term male witch to refer to a male witch.

And in the nature of "man bites dog." In the sexist era in which witchcraft was suppose to thrive, while a witches' coven was normally made up of mostly women, the leader of the coven was normally a man, as even a female witch needed a man to tell her what to do.

2nd. And while most of the people executed for witchcraft were women, men were not immune to being accused, tried, convicted, and executed for witchcraft.

3rd. And while women were more numerous as witches, it was the male witch that was regarded as being the more powerful.
