Please don't even attempt to watch this film if you have a normal sense of humour. Because this film is utterly bizarre. And do not expect a scary movie here.
Another reviewer on here, lastliberal said, and i quote...
"remake of j-horror... You won't find anything original in the film. It is in the same vein as films like The Grudge and The Eye. If you like those, you are likely to like this one also." ...(first mistake being of course that The Eye is not Japanese).
This is VERY wrong, this movie does not have the atmosphere built up in The Grudge or The Eye.
From the get go, Sick Nurses is nothing but absurdity, gore, comedy and stylish direction. And there is no denying, this movie looks impressive.. for a gore-fest. The director uses glowing colours to distort the picture and make the movie seem more dream-like. The gore effects are about normal and there are some ridiculously over the top death sequences.
Aside from the pleasing look of the film, the film showcases some hilariously peculiar behaviour from the characters when they think they are alone. A few scenes i ended up re-watching during the movie. One 30 second part of a scene where one of the nurses eats a doughnut while brushing her teeth *in particular* had me laughing so hard i HAD to pause the film.
Buy yeah, this is comedy horror, i just wanted to get that straight, and it IS a pretty good film, if you're a bit of an oddball, definitely worth a watch. 5/10
