Highly recommend it!Franco Macabrohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10994905312221715861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8293273378239831747.post-66036877365517182372009-12-03T05:38:30.066-08:002009-12-03T05:38:30.066-08:00@Dom: Yeah Dom, this one defenetly wanted to shock...@Dom: Yeah Dom, this one defenetly wanted to shock and insult as many people as possible! Theres this awesome scene where the girls start chanting their devotion to Satan inside of the church, its so awesome! The things these girls say! <br /><br />Other nunsploitatino films: <br /><br />The Nun (2005) - About a group of catholic gilrs who are victimized by an evil nun. They kill her, but soon the spirit of the evil nun comes back to haunt them. Not bad, but not awesome. Comes from Spain, and the guys from Fantastic Factory, the Spanish film company which produced many a couple of films for Stuart Gordon and Brian Yuzna. <br /><br />School of the Holy Beast (1974) - Nuns participate in orgies with priests. Torture themselves, whip themselves...movie is nuts. Its also a Japanese film!<br /><br />The Convent - About a bunch of demonic nuns, and a satanic priest that wants to bring the antichrist to earth. Actually pretty fun, gory and funny low budget horror flick. <br /><br />Night of the Demons 2 - If I remember correctly, this one has an evil nun turn into a giant fucking snake! <br /><br />Other examples of nunsploitation films that I havent seen: <br /><br />Ken Russell's The Devils (1971)<br />Satanico Pandemonium (1975) <br />Killer Nun (1978) <br />Images in a Convent (1979)<br /><br />@Carl: I dont watch that many nunsploitation films either, Ive only seen a few, and i dont purposely go hunt them down, i just kind of stumble upon them. Usually they are not that good, and they only exploit the sexual angle of things. But Alucarda is one of the good ones.Franco Macabrohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10994905312221715861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8293273378239831747.post-60704802471063004532009-12-01T20:26:06.021-08:002009-12-01T20:26:06.021-08:00Great call here Franco, this friggin movie is pure...Great call here Franco, this friggin movie is pure insanity from start to finish. I have been wanting to grab the DVD for years but it NEVER drops in price. Honestly. For 3 years its been on my wishlist, and not a single copy has become available under $10. <br /><br />I generally dont like Nunsploitation films in general, but this one had me hooked.I Like Horror Movieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15851268002582984544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8293273378239831747.post-30584702464798381792009-12-01T15:19:12.775-08:002009-12-01T15:19:12.775-08:00I need to see this.

I remember reading a lot about Alucarda in Fango and Rue Morgue. Strangely enough, I haven't viewed any real nunsploitation flicks. This would be a good place to start.Dom Coccarohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15843380116571749866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8293273378239831747.post-16495716080921409512009-12-01T04:48:31.241-08:002009-12-01T04:48:31.241-08:00@Bob: Yeah, gotta shine a light on those hidden ge...@Bob: Yeah, gotta shine a light on those hidden gems. This movie is probably not that well known simply because its a Mexican production, but hey, the film was made with American distribution in mind which is why its spoken in English. (with a heavey spanish accent at times!) <br /><br />@Manuel: Justine! Alucarda! Satan! Satan! Satan! Its kind of funny to see these two girls screaming Satan Satan Satan inside of a church, and with such relish! <br /><br />@Tagia: Defenetly! You gotta!
