Jim Powers delivers a memorable performance in Nun of That (2009), a film that fuses dark humor with the outrageous elements of exploitation cinema. Set against a backdrop of religious satire, Powers embodies the absurdity of the narrative, contributing to the film's cult appeal. With a keen understanding of the genre's nuances, his role enhances the film's exploration of faith and desire, making it a standout entry in the realm of grindhouse cinema.
Nun of That
Nun of That is an action-comedy that follows Sister Kelly Wrath as she transforms from a nun with a simple temper problem to a vengeful killer. After being gunned down in an alley, she ascends to heaven to receive training from some of the great figures of religious mythology (Moses, Gandhi, and Jesus himself). She is then set back to Earth to join the other members of the Order of the Black Habit, a group of supernatural vigilante nuns as they seek revenge against the mob.
