Directed by Michael Mohan and starring Sydney Sweeney, Álvaro Morte and Benedetta Porcaroli.
Synopsis
Cecilia, a woman of devout faith, is warmly welcomed to the perfect Italian countryside, where she is offered a new position at an illustrious convent. But Cecilia realizes that her new home hides dark and horrifying secrets.
What a surprise Immaculate ends up being when its final credits arrive and we realize that we spent time in front of a film that is quite dark and daring in its proposal and that despite having a couple of decisions that take away its strength, it is a film that more than meets its expectations. Give us a religious horror thriller with a great protagonist.
Having Sydney Sweeney as the main protagonist of the show is a great success if we take into consideration that the star of the moment brings out all her acting power to give us a solid, credible and satisfactory performance with a final climax in which the actress pays in spades. His popularity and talent. The actress alone is already a solid reason to see the film, but without her the film is also quite interesting thanks to a script that for the most part is quite round, but with the presence of Sweeney everything is elevated to a higher level. Climax and that is the merit of the script and protagonist who connect perfectly.
The great virtue that I find within Immaculate is the first half of this film, where it deals with oppression and exploitation disguised as love. And then he unleashes all the gore and blood in some pretty creepy body horror. Finding an irreverent twist and enough narrative ambiguity to give viewers topics to discuss is the most pleasant satisfaction of a genuine surprise in its final result.
The bet of a director who dares to delve into the most explicit and dark side to make his proposal stand out in a genre where nuns, convents and the devil are quite exploited. Accompanied by pleasant photography and a captivating soundtrack, it allows us to receive a film that both visually and sonically provides more intensity to everything that is happening on the screen.
It is true that we find a film that starts from less to more, but once you give it the opportunity its result does not disappoint you. It must also be stipulated that the film is not completely complete and has questionable decisions that take away its power from being much more complete than what it ends up being, but ultimately we can be satisfied that the time you gave it was not wasted.
In a year in which nuns and horror are quite in demand, Immaculate is positioned as one of those to take into account during 2024.
