  Dark Habits (1983)

description written by member Ben:

The leading character is Yolanda, a nightclub singer and junkie who seeks refuge at the Humiliated Redeemers Shelter after her boyfriend ODs and she finds herself on the run. Furthermore, the nuns whom she discovers there are not your typical cinematic order. They're named Sister Manure, Sister Sin and the like. They keep a full grown tiger in the garden.
