One reviewer Rotten tomatoes wrote, ‘A utterly terrifying and original horror film with a breathtaking ending, led by a wild and thrilling performance from Sydney Sweeney.

“While it doesn’t break too much new ground in the religious horror subgenre, a powerful performance from Sydney Sweeney and an unforgettable climax make Immaculate well worth your time,” said another.

“The filmmaking is conspicuous and boring, bogged down in tepid jump scares that often feel hollow,” said a third.

A fourth review read: “A screenplay so devoid of details and payoffs that it’s impossible to really provoke the conversations it might want to have, despite a pretty solid final scene.”

‘I don’t like rehearsing; I don’t plan what’s going to happen. What you saw (in the final moments of the film) was the first shot.”

She added: “I always want to do something new. I don’t want to do the same thing over and over again.

“It’s very much about the appeal, exploring characters – I love Cecilia’s journey, and I loved the emotional trauma that she goes through.

“And being in the horror genre is fun because there are no limitations or boundaries in that genre.

‘I always find it so funny when people pick apart the lines of a horror film or its stories.

“I’m like, ‘It’s a horror movie. You’re just having fun.’ It’s not a movie for the Oscars; you know it going into it.

“We want to create something good, but it’s fun to have characters who can go to such extreme, absurd places, and people don’t question it.”
