Nuns That Bite is a transgressive horror film that deconstructs the sanctity of religious spaces. It shifts from depicting individual victimization to exploring a chaotic, dysfunctional female collective. The film challenges traditional moral structures by replacing spiritual purity with themes of bodily autonomy and systemic breakdown. By portraying a convent defined by sexual transgression and physical predation, it rejects conventional redemption arcs. While the film excels in subverting gender and religious norms, it lacks sufficient information to assess racial or disability representation.
