Hey what's up guys
Today I'll show you a horror film: "The Nun"
Spoiler ahead, watch out and take care
The movie begins in a grim-looking abbey in Romania, during the year 1952
Inside the abbey, a young nun, named Victoria, is walking with an older nun in a dark hallway
The older nun holds a lamp and a key
Meanwhile, Victoria is in tears and seems to be afraid
Then, the older nun proceeds to open a wooden door at the end of the hallway
The wooden door has a sign that says, "God ends here"
As the older nun opens the door,
Victoria asks her if the relic can save them
In response, the older nun looks back, and decisively tells Victoria to have faith
After that, the older nun proceeds to enter the door
While Victoria, who is in tears, proceeds to kneel and pray in front of the door
In a few moments, the older nun comes back bloody, and hands over the key towards Victoria
The older nun proceeds to instruct Victoria that she must not let the demon have her
Suddenly, something inside the door drags back the older nun in an instant,
which makes Victoria scream in fear
Immediately after, Victoria runs to a room at the other end of the hallway, and closes the door
Then, she gets a rope, and asks forgiveness from God for the thing she is about to do
After that, she places the rope around her neck as she holds the key tightly
Then, as she looks back, she sees the demon nun, Valak,
coming slowly towards her while the cross inverts
In the end, she jumps with a rope in her, and hangs herself
At a different time afterward, a young man, named Frenchie,
discovers Victoria's decaying body hanging in the abbey
In the next scene, in the Vatican,
high-ranking officials of the church inform Father Burke about the death of Victoria
They order Father Burke to investigate the death of Victoria
Apparently, the church considers the act of suicide a grave sin
After that, they give Father Burke the information about the man,
who discovers the body of Victoria
Also, they assign a young nun named Irene, to help him
After that, Father Burke arrives at a Monastery
There, he meets the young nun Irene
He proceeds to inform Irene about the order of the church
In the next scene, Father Burke and Irene arrive at Frenchie's house
There, they are able to meet Frenchie, who seems to have naughty hormones as he sees Irene
Then, Frenchie introduces himself to Irene by kissing her hands
However, Father Burke introduces himself as a priest and Irene as a nun
After realizing that Irene is a nun, Frenchie apologizes to her for his nasty thoughts
Then, Father Burke proceeds to ask Frenchie to take them to the abbey
However, Frenchie seems to be reluctant to go there
Then, Irene personally asks him to take them there
This makes him smile, and he immediately accepts their request
In the end, he takes them to the abbey using a carriage
Later, Father Burke and Irene, together with Frenchie, arrive at the abbey
There, Father Burke asks Frenchie the location of Victoria's body
In response, Frenchie guides him towards the icehouse
In the icehouse, they witness the body in a sitting position
Then, Father Burke inspects the body; and he finds a key in the hand of the body
After that, they proceed to give a proper burial to the body outside
After the burial, the three of them proceed to enter the abbey
They see that Victoria's blood is still there at the front of the abbey
Inside, as they walk past through a chair,
Irene notices a seemingly dark thing behind the chair; and she talks to it
Apparently, it is the Abbess
Then, Father Burke sincerely talks to the Abbess about the case of Victoria's death
However, the Abbess tells them to come back tomorrow to find answers,
since there will be a vow of silence in the abbey
Additionally, the Abbess tells them to stay for a while in a lodging area at the convent
After that, Father Burke and Irene proceed to stay in the lodging area at the convent
Meanwhile, Frenchie heads back home, and passes through the forest
In the forest, he encounters a ghost nun who appears to be Victoria
so he proceeds to follow it
However, as he follows the ghost nun, it disappears
Then, in an instant, the ghost nun falls in front of him
This puts him in shock, making him fall to the ground
Immediately, the ghost nun attacks him as he falls to the ground
But he is able to escape, when the ghost nun disappears
In the end, Frenchie takes a cross with him, and runs away
Back to the convent, Irene reveals to Father Burke that she had several visions in the past
She adds that the thought "Mary points that way", remains in her during those visions
In response, Father Burke shares to her that he also handles a boy named Daniel,
who has visions in the past
In the past, he performed an exorcism on Daniel
He is able to cast out the demon that possessed Daniel
However, Daniel is severely wounded by the exorcism, and dies a few days later
It seems that Father Burke still feels guilt in the incident, as he shares the story with Irene
Later that night, a radio in the convent suddenly plays
Then, the music from the radio wakes up Father Burke in his room
This makes Father Burke go outside to check it
Then, he points a flashlight to the radio; and suddenly, the radio turns off
After that, he proceeds to check Irene in her room
While checking Irene, he sees a boy who is running on the other door
Then, the boy runs outside
In response, he follows the boy
As he follows the boy, the boy looks back, which makes him recognize the boy
Apparently, the boy appears to be a ghost of Daniel
This makes him more eager to follow the boy, until he reaches the graveyard outside
There, he catches up to the boy as it stops
Suddenly, a snake comes out from the boy, and attacks him
As he tries to run away, he falls down into a grave with a bell
Then, in an instant, a demonic force closes the grave
Meanwhile, Irene is alone in the convent, walking with a lamp
Then, she finds a group of nuns, who appear to be having a ceremony
In front of the ceremony is a beheaded statue of Christ
At the same time, a shadow of a nun goes around the wall of the convent
In response, she follows the shadow
Suddenly, the group of nuns disappears, as Irene looks back
Then, in an instant, the creepy face of Valak appears in front of her
After that, she goes to the graveyard to find Father Burke
There, she is able to find the grave of Father Burke
Immediately, she gets a shovel to dig the grave
In the end, she is able to save Father Burke from the grave
The following day, Father Burke and Irene go to the abbey
However, only Irene enters the abbey, and Father Burke is left at the entrance
Inside the abbey, Sister Oana meets Irene
She shares with Irene the history of the abbey
She reveals that the abbey was built by a duke during the middle ages
Additionally, the duke built the abbey to open a portal from hell,
which lets an evil creature walk on earth
However, the Catholics arrive at the abbey to stop the duke
Then, the Catholic successfully seals the portal, using a relic with the blood of Jesus
After that, the Catholics occupy the abbey to perform a perpetual prayer,
to prevent evil from coming out of the portal
Unfortunately, during the world war, the abbey is bombed, which opens up the portal again
After sharing the history of the abbey,
she emotionally tells Irene about the creepy nun that appears in the abbey
She thinks that the creepy nun makes Victoria commit suicide
Suddenly, Sister Abigail tells Irene that it's time to leave the abbey
However, the gate is already closed
This makes Sister Abigail let Irene stay in a room in the abbey
As Irene goes towards her room, a tear falls from Sister Abigail,
as if something bad is going to happen
Meanwhile, at the entrance of the abbey, the Abbess tells Father Burke that Irene is lost
Then, the Abbess head lies down, making her appear unconscious
This makes Father Burke open up the veil
However, the moment he opens up the veil, the demonic hands of the Abbess grab him
In response, he grabs the demonic hands and breaks them
After that, the Abbess disappears
Back at the inside of the abbey, Irene wakes up from a creepy dream
As she wakes up, a nun is praying in front of her
Suddenly, the nun disappears, and Valak appears behind her
Then, she hears the voice of Oana somewhere
In response, she goes outside the room to follow the voice
In a few moments, she arrives at the wooden door that says "God ends here"
Then, she witnesses Valak emerge from the wooden door
It seems that the ugly face of Valak terrifies her
Suddenly, Valak attacks her, and tries to get the key
However, she is able to hold the key and escape
In the hallway, as she runs away from Valak, a hand instantly grabs her
Apparently, it is Oana who grabs her
Oana tells her to go to the chapel to pray with the other nuns
As she leaves, the face of Oana shows concern
As Irene arrives at the chapel inside the abbey,
she witnesses a nun praying eagerly, and a dead body covered with cloth
She proceeds to remove the cloth, which puts her in shock
The cloth reveals the dead body of Oana, holding a cross
After that, a group of nuns arrives, and starts to pray solemnly
This makes her follow them and start praying
Suddenly, a demonic force makes the nuns fly away from her, and beheads the statue of Christ
The demonic force terrifies her
But she holds into her faith and proceeds to pray
While praying, the demonic force continues to attack her
In a few moments, Father Burke and Frenchie arrive at the chapel
At their arrival, the demonic force disappears
Then, Irene tells them about the group of nuns performing a prayer
However, as they look, the group of nuns disappears
Apparently, the group of nuns performing the perpetual prayer, is a vision of Irene
They realize that they are alone all along in the abbey
Then, they proceed to check the dead body at the end of the chapel
Suddenly, as they check it, the dead body becomes older
At this moment, they realize that Victoria is the last nun in the abbey
Additionally, they realize that Valak aims to possess a soul to be able to wander outside of the abbey
This makes them figure out that Victoria did not commit suicide;
but she sacrificed herself to prevent Valak from possessing her
In the end, they found the answers to their question, that is, the place is no longer holy
It seems that the film foreshadows the unholiness of the abbey,
using the imagery in the previous scenes
Like, the image of the inverted cross, the beheaded statue of Christ,
and Victoria's blood at the front of the abbey
Especially Victoria's blood in the front of the abbey,
seemingly marks the end of the performance of the perpetual prayer in the abbey
In the next scene, the three of them proceed to go towards the relic place,
in order to get the relic that can close the portal
However, they cannot find the relic there
Meanwhile, Father Burke sees the hands of Mary's statue pointing towards something
This gives sense to Irene's thoughts during her visions, that is, "Mary points that way"
After that, they use Victoria's key to open the place where the relic is
As they open the place, they are astonished by the relic
Then, Father Burke takes the relic; and he gives it to Irene
After getting the relic, they proceed towards the wooden door that says, "God ends here"
Then, Father Burke opens up the wooden door, and goes inside
Immediately, Irene and Frenchie follow him
Inside, Irene instructs them that they need to find the portal
After that, they walk separately to find the portal
A demon can possibly attack them; but still, they decide to search separately,
which puts everything in suspense as they walk in the hallways
Then, Irene enters a room, and steps on a demon sign
Slowly, the demon sign lights up, making her scream
In response, she tries to run away
However, in front of her is a group of demonic nuns with hidden faces
In the end, the demonic nuns stop her
Meanwhile, Frenchie tries to find Irene
Then, he is able to figure out that she is in a room behind the door
As he opens the door, he witnesses a group of demonic nuns with a hidden face
This terrifies him, and he decides to walk out of the room
However, he hears the voice of Irene asking for help
This makes him go back, despite being in tears and terrified
Then, he proceeds to find Irene in the middle of the demonic nuns
In a few moments, the demonic nuns walk away, and reveal Irene in an unusual pose
After that, he slowly removes the cloth that hides Irene's face
Apparently, Irene is already possessed by Valak
Then, Valak attacks him, and calls him a Frenchman
In response, Frenchie hilariously tells Valak that he is French-Canadian and not a Frenchman
After that, he instantly wipes the blood of Christ from the relic to the face of Irene
As a result, the blood of Christ removes Valak from Irene
Immediately, Valak chokes Frenchie, until he becomes unconscious
Meanwhile, Valak also screams at Irene, which makes her fly to a water pool
Meanwhile, Father Burke is running towards Irene in the hallway
However, a snake from the demonic Daniel chokes him
Then, as he grabs it, the snake bites his eyes
In the end, he is able to escape from the snake
And he goes to Irene at the water pool
Meanwhile, the ugly face of Valak slowly emerges from the water
This makes Irene tremble in fear
Then, in an instant, Valak drowns Irene in the water
In response, Father Burke performs a prayer to fight Valak
However, Valak screams at him, which makes him fly away
Meanwhile, Irene puts the blood of Christ from the relic in her mouth
Then, the moment Valak holds her up, she spits blood onto the ugly face of Valak
The blood of Christ burns the ugly face of Valak, which makes it even uglier
In the end, the portal successfully drags away Valak
Meanwhile, Irene is drowning underwater
Immediately, Frenchie arrives to save her
However, she is unconscious, as Frenchie drags her from the water
In response, Frenchie performs mouth-to-mouth CPR on Irene in order to save her
After that, Irene gains consciousness
Then, Frenchie apologizes to Irene for performing a tongue massage on her
He tells her that it is only a non-hormone kiss in order to save her
In response, Irene thanks him for saving her life
In the next scene, Father Burke, Irene, and Frenchie are about to leave the abbey through a carriage
Then, as they are about to leave, Frenchie puts his hands in his nape
In his nape, there is an inverted-cross mark
In the end, they proceed to leave the abbey
The movie ends in a lecture room, twenty years later
In the lecture, the teacher shows footage of an exorcism case
In the footage, Frenchie is seemingly possessed by Valak
Additionally, beside Frenchie, is Lorraine, the protagonist from the Conjuring films
The encounter of a possessed Frenchie and Lorraine
in the footage appears to relate this film to the Conjuring films
Additionally, Valak is the demon that haunts Lorraine in the Conjuring films
This means that this film explains the origin of Valak,
and also shows how it reaches Lorraine and her family in the Conjuring films
Apparently, Valak is able to possess Frenchie during their encounter in the abbey
It is no coincidence that Frenchie is a world traveler, which allows Valak to reach a faraway place
This means that in the end,
Valak successfully walks out of the confines of the abbey to cast evil in the world
