Nunsploitation:
Killer Nun (Suor Omicida) was an example of the nunsploitation genre, which centres on aberrant secularised behaviour from women religious. Unlike other examples of the genre, usually set in medieval or Renaissance locations, Killer Nun is firmly set in the present day, and has no pretensions to social commentary or any remarks about the role of women religious within church and society. In the United Kingdom, Mary Whitehouse denounced it as one of the "video nasties" subgenre of violent horror cinema, which 'might' adversely affect human behaviour. However, the film is now also available in DVD format.
