It’s been a busy few months for Sydney Sweeney, with Immaculate being her third movie in theaters since Anyone But You was released last December. A horror movie, Immaculate was directed by Michael Mohan (The Voyeurs) and written by Andrew Lobel. Sweeney plays a new nun named Sister Cecilia who goes to a convent in Italy to take her vows. But, after a surprise pregnancy, she notices some strange occurrences and realizes that the convent might not be all she signed up for. You might be wondering if there’s anything extra after the credits, so let’s see if Immaculate has a post-credits scene.
Does Immaculate Contain a Post-Credits Scene?
If you feel the need to run out of the theater as soon as the credits roll, feel free to do so, because Immaculate does not have a post-credits scene. There are no extra bits of dialogue, no bloopers, and nothing that would set up a sequel once the credits begin. So, if you do need to run to the bathroom – either because you have a tiny bladder or just got a little bit too scared – go for it. Or of course, you could stick around to watch all the names of the people who worked on the film.
It could have been a coin flip as to whether or not the film would have a post-credits scene. On one hand, it’s an indie film that is most likely standalone, with little chance for a sequel. But, the movie does end leaving some questions open, so there could’ve been an extra scene to tie some things up. Even though it’s a horror film, Immaculate is also pretty funny. It wouldn’t have been out of left field for a final laugh right before the theater lights came back on. Or because it’s a horror film, there could’ve been a scare right at the end.
Ultimately, it’s probably for the best that Immaculate doesn’t have a post-credits scene. The very last scene of the film is arguably the most impactful one, and what you’ll be thinking about long after the credits roll. Throwing in a post-credits scene at the end might have undercut the lasting impact of that scene. You might stay in the theater shellshocked by the film anyway. You can see Immaculate when it comes to theaters on March 22, 2024.
