The wildly popular movie “Sister Act” is really just a watered-down version of this wicked, witty dark comedy by the crazy guy who brought you “Women On The Verge Of A Nervous Breakdown”. After her boyfriend croaks, Yolanda the trashy nightclub singer needs a place to lay low for a while. Hey, what’s more innocent than a bunch of nuns, right? Holy smokes! What the heck is going on here? Sleazy porn novelists, wild tigers, coke-snorting crazies and lots of lezzie shennanigans? These are some wild and crazy nuns!

Movie Description
Who but Pedro Almodóvar would make a movie in which a nightclub singer named Yolanda, whose boyfriend has died from a heroin overdose, hides from the police in a nunnery--only to discover that the nuns have more perverse lifestyles than her own? The nuns of Dark Habits use drugs, write lurid pulp novels, design high-fashion habits, and keep a tiger in their courtyard. Yolanda (Cristina Sanchez Pascual) gets caught up in the head nun's scheme to regain the patronage of a wealthy noblewoman, but betrayal, illicit love, and a campy musical number are waiting in the wings. Dark Habits features Almodóvar regulars Carmen Maura and Marisa Paredes, as well as a bit part by Cecelia Roth of All About My Mother. Fans of Almodóvar's magnificent later films (like Habla Con Ella (Talk to Her)) may find Dark Habits a bit thin, but it offers its own charms and comic delights. --Bret Fetzer
