Netflix’s latest play Warrior Nun is a kind of updated Buffy the Vampire Slayer set in Spain, with spooky crypts, angels, monsters, and even a swarthy hunk called “JC” (Emilio Sakraya). At the outset, a platoon of young women in black ninja outfits is fighting a losing battle against a force of mysterious goons. The sisters, among them Sister Lilith (Lorena Andrea) and Sister Beatrice (Kristina Tonteri-Young) have retreated to a morgue-crypt with a dying comrade with a glowing metal halo in her back. In a last-ditch attempt to stop this artefact falling into enemy hands, a nurse plunges it into the back of another corpse, Ava (Alba Baptista), a 19-year-old orphan who recently died in unexplained circumstances. With the golden ring lodged between her shoulder blades, Ava comes roaring back to life. Ava does what any self-healing young person would do and sets out in search of a good time. Luckily, she is rescued by the aforementioned JC, who introduces Ava to his friends. Who is this young woman, and why was she dead in that mysterious crypt in the first place? Soon it will be time for her to join the ninjas and fulfil her destiny.
