Trivia
According to director Bruno Mattei, the convent the movie was shot in (the "Convento di Santa Priscilla" in Rome) was back then owned by FIAT, but belongs now to the Secret Service.

Quotes
Mother Vincenza: The genitals are the door to evil! The vagina, the uterus, the womb; the labyrinth that leads to hell; the devil's tools!

Alternate versions
UK cinema and video versions were cut by 19 secs by the BBFC to edit a scene of a woman removing a dead nun's genitals and a closeup of a knife being twisted into a stab wound.

Based on LP "Roller"

The genitals are the door to EVIL!"

Those looking for the typical sex and nudity expected in a nunsploitation film need to look elsewhere. This one is pure horror, with a genital removal starting the blood-fest.

The evil Mother Vincenza (Franca Stoppi) provides the best performance despite the outrageous lines given to her.

Father Valerio (Carlo De Mejo) is called in to investigate several murders that are reportedly the work of Satan. One suspects, along with the good father, that there is a psychopath lose in the convent. The answer may lie in the middle of both explanations.

Exciting pieces with long periods of nothing in between. For serious fans of Italian horror, it will be a treat, but for others, it may not be so good.

Great music throughout.
