In addition to being another tent-pole in The Conjuring franchise, The Nun will also find company within the obscure nunsploitation subgenre of horror.
It’s also worth noting that Farmiga is the sister of Vera Farmiga, who plays Loraine Warren in “The Conjuring” movies.
The subgenre peaked in the 1970 with the controversial The Devils, directed by Ken Russell, often considered a paradigm.
Look for The Nun to haunt US theaters beginning September 7th, and thanks to Entertainment Weekly for this latest sneak peek.
