Dark Habits (1983)
6/10
Sister Manure, Sister Rat, Sister Damned, Sister Snake.

I am an Almodovar fan, but even I did not fully appreciate this film. It was like Sister Act without all the singing.

When a prostitute has to escape after her lover dies from an overdose she provided to him, she naturally goes to this cloister. Why not? She fits right in with dope users, heroin addicts, obsessive-compulsives, and cheap fiction writers.

Only, I remember laughing during Sister Act. There just wasn't that much that was funny here, and there was only one musical number. There wasn't even a sex scene!

It was strange, and only recommended to those who really appreciate Almodovar and want to see all his films.
