You may be fed up with movies about nuns or you may be excited for them. Now that is something for you to decide. But when it comes to the horror, this is quite decent. Also try not to compare it with the Nun itself (the Conjuring universe one that is),although I do think that both have their merits and are about on the same level for different reasons.
Now this is more down and dirty, while the other one is more glossy. This also has quite a few cliches in it. If you can deal with them, mixed with very weak character choices (though some may call them "real", at least under the circumstances),than this movie will be entertaining and it will have you on the edge of your seat.

Plot summary
In the 1950s in small-town Georgia, a pregnant young woman named Agatha seeks refuge in a convent. What first starts out as the perfect place to have a child turns into a nightmare wherein silence is forced, ghastly secrets are masked, and every bit of willpower Agatha has is tested as she learns the sick and twisted truth of the convent and the odd people that lurk inside its halls.

Nun for you
Cruelty, not Horror
In 1957, the teenager Mary (Sabrina Kern) feels guilty for the accidental death of her young brother drowned in a bathtub. She decides to leave her alcoholic father to live with her boyfriend Jimmy (Justin Miles). They become con artists, but one day one of their victims discovers the scheme and take all their money. Pregnant and left without any means of survival, Mary decides to leave Jimmy, who is a musician, and move to an isolated convent to deliver the baby. She is welcomed by the Mother Superior (Carolyn Hennesy),but soon Mary learns that there is a scheme in the convent to take the babies from the pregnant women.
"St. Agatha" is a film labeled with the horror genre, but there is basically cruelty and not horror. However, it is not a bad movie, but the viewer needs to have the stomach for watching the cruelties that Mary is submitted in the convent by the nuns. My vote is six.
Title (Brazil): Not Available
Tension is maintained, the ominous music helps but the suspense is zero n the ending rushed n a big meh.
Had read very bad reviews bah it n even the ratings weren't convincing but I had hope in Bousman. The plot - A pregnant con woman seeks asylum in an isolated convent run by a bunch of outcast nuns. The woman's backstory is told through flashbacks. It doesn't take much longer to reveal to us that the nuns r short of cash, their donors r limited, they r very extreme in their torture methods but somehow they do have a doctor always ready. The set up is 50's n therefore one shouldn't question the plausibility. But what really bugs me is the rushed up ending. Although ther is decent tension maintained n the ominous music helps but the suspense is zero n the ending meh.
