When a baby is left on the steps of an isolated monastery, on a remote Scottish island during WWII, the nuns take it in, planning to care for it until a storm passes. Soon though, strange and unexplained events begin to happen at the convent.

Leslie Felperin

Guardian

This cheap-as-chips British horror concerning demented nuns is risible in the extreme, but there’s something about its willingness to commit to the bit that’s sort of admirable.

Rated: 2/5

AIPT

It quickly becomes apparent that this is going to be more character driven than most nun horror movies. While the sisters follow the familiar tropes ranging from very devout to questioning their faith, the plot never feels derivative.
