BAD HABITS 
(2000)

(From Joe Bob's Ultimate B Movie Guide)


A gun-toting redneck escaping bank robber can't decide what he likes more--strippers, nuns or cash--in this quirky made-in-Austin comedy starring Kerry Beyer, who also directed, produced and wrote the script. Beyer kidnaps a nun for no apparent reason and ties her up in a cheap motel room and wonders how many commandments he's broken. Pretty soon he decides to test the limits of the Almighty and play doctor with the nun, if you know what I mean and I hope you don't, and right at that moment his catty girlfriend--the beautiful Tonie Perensky, playing a featured dancer at a Wichita Falls topless bar--walks in on the scene. Relationship drama ensues. After a fairly torrid session of Mambo-Molly-Meets-the-Nookie-Monster in front of the bound but wide-eyed sister of charity, our conflicted existential hero has to accompany the cringing nun to the lavatory, a trip she intends to describe in the confessional one day soon. The next morning our low-rent Bonnie and Clyde prepare to depart for Mexico, but first they have to decide just how Catholic they are and whether they really want to eat Mexican food the rest of their lives. As they argue over whether to kill the sister, how to do it, and just who's responsibility it is, the nun forgets most of the words to the Lord's Prayer, and our evil topless queen waxes suspicious. The climax is not that surprising as we discover that a nun with a gun is not much fun. Two dead bodies. Nun-fondling. Aardvarking. Gratuitous lapdance. With Cynthia Aguiar as the nun with an active imagination.
