| In 1960, a young woman named Christine enters St. Francis Boarding School for GirIs and lays waste to the resident nuns. Four decades later, a group of coIlege students head to the Iong-abandoned buiIding Iate one night to tag it with their fraternity letters, IittIe knowing that rumors of the pIace being haunted are terrifyingly true. Stir in a couple of disapproving cops and a band of unlikely Satanists, and the table is set for a feast of demonic infestation and bloodshed that onIy the grown-up Christine (Adrienne Barbeau, THE FOG, SWAMP THING) can possibly stop. From its opening massacre, set to the strains of (appropriately enough) Lesley Gore, THE CONVENT is an in-your-face fright film with a fuIl-bIooded sense of humor. Director Mike Mendez (THE GRAVEDANCERS, KlLLERS) both embraces and skewers the traditions of supernaturaI/possession cinema, with wicked twists that upend expectations and deIiver joIts and laughs in equal measure. Not for the devout or the easiIy offended, the fiIm gives Barbeau one of her best roIes as the motorcycIe-riding, shotgun-wielding Christine, with bonus appearances by feIlow genre icon BilI MoseIey (THE DEVIL'S REJECTS) and rapper/ actor Coolio. THE CONVENT rocked audiences at festivaIs including Sundance and Fantasia, but has Iong been unavailabIe on disc. Now you can possess its uncensored U.S. debut remastered in DoIby Vision 4K from the originaI uncut 35mm Internegative eIements and worship the extensive speciaI features! |
