By turns erotic, horrific, and shamelessly melodramatic, “The Sinful Nuns of St. Valentine” has well earned its reputation as a notorious nunsploitation classic. Pursued by soldiers, Esteban seeks refuge in a convent where his girlfriend Lucita has been banished. To be reunited, she must resist seduction by her lesbian cellmate. Meanwhile, Esteban contends with the advances of a sensual abbess.
