Sacred Flesh

About This Movie

Sacred Flesh is one of those films that stirs up a lot of thoughts about faith and desire, you know? The atmosphere is thick with tension, and the way it explores the taboo around sexuality in a convent setting is pretty striking. The pacing is deliberate, almost meditative, which might not appeal to everyone, but it really lets the unsettling themes breathe. Those practical effects, especially in the more visceral scenes, hit hard without feeling overdone. The performances, particularly of the Mother Superior grappling with her visions of Mary Magdalene, are haunting. It’s definitely an offbeat piece that sticks with you, blending horror and drama in a way that feels raw and intense.
