Films like The Killer Nun.

The Killer Nun (1979) reads as Heavy, steady, extreme nunsploitation / giallo, inventive in texture. Nihilistic, intimate, cold. Every film below is ranked by distance across the same twelve hand-scored axes — with what it keeps, and where it walks away. Not a genre dump.
