Our suggestions
In post-war Spain, Narcisa, a young novice with supernatural powers, arrives at a former convent, now a school for girls, to become a teacher. As the days go by, the strange events and increasingly disturbing situations that torment her will eventually lead her to unravel the terrible skein of secrets that surround the convent and haunt its inhabitants.
"When we talk about horror cinema and the name Paco Plaza ([Rec], Veronica), we know we can expect at least a satisfying experience. "Sister Death" confirms the rule: the film is about Narcisa (an outstanding Aria Bedmar), a young woman who had a miraculous childhood and decides to become a novice. Working as a teacher in a former convent turned girls' school, Narcisa soon experiences disturbing and strange events that lead her into a crisis of faith and the unraveling of terrible secrets within the convent. Without reinventing the wheel but with very effective imagery, it's a solid Spanish horror proposition in the ever-engaging trend of "cursed nuns.""
