Immaculate

If you're only going to see one horror movie this Easter, let it be "Immaculate." Sydney Sweeney plays Sister Cecilia, a nun who has moved from the US to Italy to join a nunnery, which we know from the opening sequence is a place where bad things are happening. What exactly is going on isn't revealed until the third act, or in this case third trimester. Yes, you read that correctly. Sister Cecilia soon upon arrival finds herself immaculately pregnant - Jesus be praised, it's a miracle! Or is it? "Immaculate" is pretty much your standard horror nun fun, until we get to the ending. While many horror films, or films in general, fail to stick the landing, it's the opposite with 'Immaculate." The ending is so good, so unhinged, wildly intense, and yet so utterly satisfying, the ending lifts the whole film up. It's largely because of the incredible performance of Sydney Sweeney - she is a beast in this movie. Last year she was in HBO's "Reality" She is a remarkable young actor and I loved her in that performance and in this one. She's someone to watch. Catch this holy-moly this Easter, in theatres.
