This movie grabbed my attention for one reason: the image used to support the movie on Prime aka a demonic nun in all white, headpiece included with neon green eyes that are glowing, visible blue veins and the mouth is also glowing.

It has been sitting in my list on Shudder for two reasons: the summary sounded interesting, as well as it being a black and white Japanese film. However, I was not expecting this...
