This movie isnt the worst but its far from good. the acting is actually quite good but the writing kinda sucks. there's plotholes and a whole lot of suspense building to the end but then we dont get a resolution. There's also some hints at there being a supernatural element but that never gets explored. Its not so much a horror film as a thriller or suspense perhaps. I wont rewatch it but its not a bad flick to put on while you do something else.
Giving it 3 stars only because the acting was okay.... But the script and directing of it was absolutely horrendous.
It's one thing to give your screen characters the IQ's of a potato, but it's unforgivable to treat your audience as morons. Add to that a slow pacing only made even slower by numerous flashbacks.
It might have been saved by at least a good finale confrontation between the main protagonist and antagonist, but even that was omitted. Instead we were given a ridiculous ,unrealistic and almost laughable act at the end.
I wish I could say there was a twist or something super exciting and unpredictable that happens but there just isn't.
OK, so this isn't going to be a film for gore fans. It is more of a psychological thriller/horror than all out horror.
Even so, this film is well acted and produced with a solid story yo can become engrossed in.
Certainly worth a watch.

I ended up watching this movie thinking its some sort of nun horror which it is not. Nonetheless there is quite a bit of brain put here to keep it taut and interesting. Alas when you get a bit involved in whats happening the makers went clueless how to end it and just brought up a half hearted ending which seems rushed and out of place. Wish they had kept the flow and come up with a flow that justified the ending. Would have deserved a star or two more had the ending been cohesive.

- GoofsWhen Mary/Agatha is going through Mother Superior's desk she happens upon a stack of money. At the top of the stack is a modern $100 bill with the enlarged face of Benjamin Franklin. These bills were not put into circulation until 1996, which is, at the very minimum 40 years after this film is said to have taken place.
