This movie will give you exactly what you expect from the plot based on synopsis - nothing more nothing less. There is not that much elaboration on the lore, who the characters are and why they do what they do. It’s simple, and it kind of works.

Lilith is not exactly a niche antagonist, but still better than good old Satan himself. Even if underdeveloped, I liked how the plot centered around womanhood - for good or for bad. Yes, she kind of gave me a red version of Conjuring’s devil, not the most unique design for the “evil being”, but what I do appreciate is how little we actually saw her throughout the movie.

Not enough tension builds up and scares, but I do appreciate that when there were horror elements they went more into weird shit in the corner or seen when passing by, and not in your face jump scares. I also really liked the set design. Smart choices of the locations. Decent use of light - bright enough you don't miss a creepy hand, but dark enough to keep the scary atmosphere.

For the acting - it was good. I don’t really remember which nun, since they all kind of blend together, but one of them especially delivered good creeps.

There was a lot of potential to make the movie better - expanding on the lore of the orphanage, focusing on less characters, making the sibling’s bond more prominent.

Overall, not exactly something you will regret watching, but not something to be excited about.
