Released in 1993, Nunsense is a notable film directed by David Stern.

What it’s about. An unfortunate convent cooking accident causes most of the order of the Little Sisters of Hoboken to die of botulism. Before all of the deceased sisters can be buried, Reverend Mother Superior (Rue McClanahan) buys a camcorder and VCR for the convent - resulting in not having enough money to bury the four remaining sisters (which, by the way, are temporarily being stored in the freezer). In order to raise money to bury the four dead sisters, the Little Sisters of Hoboken (well, what's left of them) put on a riotous revue packed with hilarious, show-stopping song and dance numbers.

Who’s in it. Nunsense stars Rue McClanahan as Rev. Mother Mary Regina, Semina De Laurentis as Sister Mary Amnesia and Christine Toy Johnson as Sister Mary Leo.

How it landed. With an audience score of 6.5/10, Nunsense has drawn a solid, mixed-to-positive response.
