The Convent's inclusion of a single character seen only at the beginning and end of the film is basically all that separates it from being a shot-for-shot remake of Night of the Demons. Which I gues doesn't sound so bad in theory, I mean, I like that movie, so ripping it off isn't the worst idea. But if you're gonna steal the entire concept, maybe don't steal some of the other stuff. Like I think it would've even been easier to swallow if it was just something as straight forward as making the "demons" look different from how they do in Night of the Demons, you know, just for that little bit of originality. But I guess that's too much to ask. I honestly did still kind of enjoy this though. Final rating:★★½ - Had a lot that appealed to me, didn’t quite work as a whole.
