Dark Habits (1983)
The Real Sister Act...
5 October 2021
DARK HABITS is one of the strangest, most divinely humorous movies ever made. Nightclub singer, Yolanda (Cristina Sanchez Pascual) goes into hiding after the overdose death of her heroin-addicted boyfriend. Yolanda's got the habit as well.

Providentially, Yolanda winds up in a convent full of bizarre, drug-taking nuns. Has she found a weird little corner of heaven?

BEST NAMES OF THE NUNS: #1- Sister Damned! #2- Sister Rat! #3- Sister Manure!

BEST IMAGES AND SCENES: #1- The full-grown tiger in the convent's courtyard! #2- The bongo-playing nun! #3- Seeing through the psychedelic eyes of Sister Damned while she's tripping on acid!

While this movie may have inspired SISTER ACT, the two are light years apart! The Spanish original is loaded with joyous, wanton abandon that Hollywood could never explore...
