Director: Michael Mohan

Overview : Immaculate is a solidly above-average piece of religious horror that may be a gateway for a younger crowd to get into horror,

Storyline : Sister Cecilia (Sydney Sweeney) values nothing more than her faith. When the young woman gets the opportunity to join a prestigious “Our Lady of Sorrows” convent in Italy, she accepts the position with gusto.

She, of course, quickly begins to feel something’s not right. Her suspicions are confirmed in the strangest of ways when she wakes up pregnant, even though she hasn’t had any sexual relationship , her fellow sisters then look to her as a holy figure set to bring out about the rebirth of Jesus Christ. Cecilia grows more and more distraught in her role as the convent’s influence sinks in. Unsteadiness turns to terror as Cecilia uncovers the truth behind her “miracle” pregnancy. how cecila Comes out of this web of horror forms the crux of the movie especially in climax.

Technical Review :Director Michael Mohan and screenwriter Andrew Lobel have presented a religious horror. The great opening scene portrays the claustrophobic demise of a previous nun (Simona Tabasco). Immaculate then predictably makes the audience wait through a slow burn until the third act. For the most part, Mohan’s direction and Lobel’s script coasts on jump scares, dream sequence and eerie scenes , and whatever else one usually sees in this kind of horror flick. Director has totally  given a bombastic climax which will blow your mind.

The cinematography is good, showcasing the serene country side of Italy and equally spooky cathedral.

Performances : Sydney Sweeney is too good , Sweeney works miracles. Through her facial expressions and delivery, she gracefully navigates the transition from confusion to fear to anger.in sequence with 3 acts of the film 

Once Sydney Sweeney starts fighting the machinations of the convent, she truly comes into her own , she single-handedly tearing down the foundation of Immaculate in the best possible way.

Final Words : Brace Yourself For Most Scary Movie Of The Year.
