“The Nun” is a new horror flick that just scared up $53.5 million at the box office. Directed by Corin Hardy, the film is the fifth exorcism type film of the “The Conjuring” film franchise.
The movie only has a 26% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, and you could easily argue that the film plays up on stereotypes and cliches about religious sisters.
“‘The Nun’ is not intended to be a vocation movie, in case you were wondering (not),” writes Sister Rose Pacatte of the Daughters of Saint Paul.
But not all is lost.
Sister B of the Salesians wants to plan a convent road trip to the theater to see the film and do some scaring of her own. We couldn’t agree with this idea more. Check out the plan:

It didn’t take too long before Catholic Twitter exploded with approval of Sister’s idea.

Does this plan mesh with the New Evangelization? Well, we’re not sure if this is what Saint Pope John Paul II had in mind.
But we think this plan is hilarious, so bring it on sisters. Pass the popcorn.
