Solemplex To me, this movie is perfection.

Vashirdfel Simply A Masterpiece

BoardChiri Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay

Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

Paul Andrews Sacred Flesh concerns the order of the Nuns of the Sacred Heart where the Mother Superior (Sally Tremaine) is having visions & conversation's with Mary Magdalene (Kristina Bill) a talking skeleton called Catechism (Rachel Taggart) & a gal named Repression (Eileen Daly), most of these conversation's & visions involve sex. The Reverend Mother calls in Father Henry (Simon Hill) to, well I don't know actually. The Mother Superior carries on having more visions & conversations involving sex & that's it basically.This English production was written (Ha! On the back of a postage stamp!) & directed by Nigel Wingrove & is total pure complete & utter crap from start to finish, you know there are some films which are rubbish but try & I feel sort of bad writing a negative comment for them but then there are films like Sacred Flesh which I take personal pride & great satisfaction in trashing like the piece of garbage that it is! As you may already have gathered I don't like Sacred Flesh at all, it has no story, it's probably the most boring 75 minute film I've ever seen & it fails on just about every level. I suppose it's trying to say something relevant about the Church & it's attitudes towards sex but it's so badly written & thought out that the themes & ideas it raises go absolutely nowhere. The character's are awful, the dialogue is awful & the sex scenes are awful. A lot of the running time is devoted to Nuns groping themselves & each other, there isn't any actual sex scenes between a man & woman in the film & it's as soft as you can get, there are naked bodies aplenty but no real action at all, damned this film is crap!Director Wingrove was obviously working on a low budget so he tries to give the film a stylish look which fails completely, this is meant to be a period piece as people are still travelling around the country on horseback & that period look coupled with the flashy editing & lighting just makes the whole thing look a complete total & utter mess. God damned this film is crap. Again it's worth mentioning that Sacred Flesh is as soft a porn film as you can imagine, I don't understand why anyone would want to watch this rubbish instead of a proper hardcore porno that would be cheaper & easier to find as well as a lot more satisfying. You'll have a hard time jerking off to this crap unless semi naked Nuns do it for you.Technically the film is basic, the period setting looks cheap as does the whole rubbishy thing. The acting is terrible & the girls aren't even that good looking either.Sacred Flesh is terrible & It's been my pleasure to say as much. Just hire a proper porno out, get some tissues & have fun which is very unlikely if you decide to watch this. This is awful & it's as simple & straight forward as that.

CharltonBoy Now there are some people who watch porn movies who say they like to see a bit of a story and there are some who like to see just action and no story (i fall in the second catagory). In Sacred Flesh we see have a film that fits into neither catagory. This joke of a film does try to show a story but it is so full of religious clap trap that you can't help but reach for the fast forward button to search for the fleshy good bits. Thats were we have the other problem, apart from a couple of flashes of soft porn we see nothing that would get anybody exited .If your thinking of seeing this for the sex ,watch something else because this wont do it for you.The costumes look like they had been made at the local primary school and the acting was so laughable , especially from the men , that it provides the only entertainment. Dont touch this with a barge pole. 1 out of 10.

herolder For Nunsploitation fans, this movie is a must. For all others: Don't bother to watch. Basicly it's a sex film with no plot. In her visions a mother superior is discussing with Mary Magdalene about sexual desire and her denial of it. She also tells us the confessions some nuns made to her, which are shown in several sex scenes. Unfortunately the nuns in these scenes have hardly any dialog and are just beautiful bodies without any character behind. The movie is sometimes close to porn, but neither really dark nor disturbing. On the positive side, the sex scenes are well made and the movie has some good visuals (like the opening credits), only the outdoor scenes have the quality of a made for TV film.The sex scenes I give 8/10, the movie itself 5/10.

daniel_damaged I recommend this film to anyone who has in some way been effected Christian repression. It does a good job of putting across a question to the viewer - "What exactly is it these extreme Christians have against sex anyway?"Even though the acting and the costumes are from from outstanding. The script is pretty impressive, the erotic scenes are very well shot, the music is great and it just has an overall creepy dark look about it all.But my main problem with it was - The very talented, lovely Emily Booth should of been given a bigger role.i'd give the film a 7/10
