This movie should be a national treasure. It's the most ridiculous, trashy, suspenseful, sexy, horrific modern grindhouse film that's been made in possibly the last 30 years aside from grindhouse of course. It centers around a young, psychotic woman whose punishing bad men through her skills as a nurse. She sets her sight on a new nurse at the hospital where she works and becomes a bit obsessed. It all leads up to a magnificent splatterfest at their job. The movie is smart in the sense of knowing what it is and completely delivering. Paz Vega is just perfect in the lead she's so weird and it just works. Kathleen Turner, Niecy Nash, Corbin Bleu, Katrina Bowden, Judd Nelson and Boris Kodjoe also star. Sadly the movie never got the theatrical release it deserved. It's still criminally underseen and deserves a cult following so if you haven't seen it and high gloss, gory, elevated camp appeals to you, rectify that asap.
7.5/10
