While many collectors default to 4K these days, the standard 1080p Blu-ray transfer of The Nun is still incredibly striking.
Set in 1952, the film acts as a prequel to the rest of the franchise. The story kicks off when a young nun at a cloistered abbey in Romania takes her own life. To investigate this tragedy on holy ground, the Vatican dispatches Father Burke, a priest with a troubled past, and Sister Irene, a novitiate on the threshold of her final vows.
From the ancient, crumbling stone walls to the fog-rolling cemeteries, the high-definition resolution brings out all the fine details of the production design.
Love them or hate them, the movie relies heavily on jump scares and mirrors. The sharp contrast and clarity of the Blu-ray make those sudden visual pops incredibly effective.
