    The vengeful spirit of a murdered nurse comes back to torment and kill her former colleagues responsible for her death. Yeah, it's a plot that's been done before and the ghostly apparition is typically Asian in style but this is still pretty entertaining. It does have some intere... read moresting and well executed death scenes, some of them quite bloody too which is rare for an Asian supernatural film that tends to focus on atmosphere and scares. This one is never scary or even jumpy but it has some creepy touches. For the most part it's a fun and darkly humoured affair but it gets more serious as it goes along and reveals a very good twist ending which is hinted at during the film but I didn't see it coming. It's a very good Thai film that lacks a little originality but has enough thrills to be a crowd-pleaser.

    Low budget and often cheap looking, Sick Nurses works on a variety of levels. It's rarely perfect, but it has thoughtful and well executed moments. On the surface it is a typical Asian revenge horror. Simmering underneath is a more complicated motive which isn't fully revealed un... read moretil the last minutes. With this mystery in place, a lot of the film is simply different nurses being offed. It doesn't sound too effective, but the directors manage to create a connection to each of the victims. Sweet, subtle, visual scenes are employed to give us a quick overview of each nurse. One cuts out pictures of jewelery from magazine advertisements and sticks them upon her person. Another girl stands in front of an anatomically perfect projection, drawing the muscle definition lines onto her body before scribbling away in anger. These are quick but powerful moments. These gel uncomfortably with the horror, which is gruesome at times. My favorite part was seeing a woman rub razor blades on her face resulting in her jaw coming off. Her tongue then falls out, which her cat starts to eat. After that a fetus jumps from its jar and lodges itself in her throat causing her to suffocate. You read all of that correctly and it is in stark contrast to the sweet humanity. At times funny, at times cheap, but mostly interesting, I'd like to see some more from the makers of this.

    It's like And Then There Were None meets Ju-On: The Grudge as directed by Quentin Tarantino.

    Considering that it's a horror movie, I guess the fact that the scares are few and far between is kind of a drawback. Still, a surprisingly sexy antagonist toy around with ... read morethe lives of a bunch of vain nurses and the pig of a doctor they work for is surprisingly fun to watch.

    File Sick Nurses under "Guilty Pleasures".

    Pretty Entertaining low budget film from Thailand, with some good looking actors and actresses. The film breaks through the stereotypical Asian film making style, instead of buliding suspense and creating eerie atmosphere, the film used more gore and graphic violence to shock the... read more audience. The plot is simple but the death scenes were great, the hospital setting was well used in term of method of death. The villainess has a cool outfit, the twist at the end is quite cool too. Excellent work!

    What can I say.
    Where the ghost comes in, it's not too far from the whole Ju-On, hair in face deal.
    But think about this: Nurses who harvest bodies... one body wants revenge. That is basically a formula for a good time.
    Not only that: this film is shot really well, when the ... read moreghost haunts the nurses it has a very strange and dreamlike aesthetic, and the rest of the film is nothing to sneeze at either.
    I'm not being too comprehendable here, but it's basically a flick that kicks A double scribble.

    A Thai horror film that was twisted & bloody but similar to few others that have a vengeful ghost with long black hair,with the exception that this ghost wasn't pale & instead has black make-up.The plot wasn't all that good & the characters are odd but the film manage to be enter... read moretaining & bizarre at times.Some cool death scenes & the effects were good at times but the weird conclusion was unexpected & stupid at the same time.

    Fun and stylish Thai horror flick that seems to try desperately to entertain the audience every second, and mostly succeeds. If it wasn't for the fairly lame story (though there are some cool parts, the ghost's "real identity" for example) this could have been a great one. But ... read morea pretty darned good one ain't nothing to frown at either.

    Nubile nurses, the same phantom from The Ring I and II, The Grudge I and II, and Shutter, and gruesome gore that is every bit as innovative and delightfully disgusting as a horror fan could hope for.

    This movie was totally wicked! Gore and a great story! It was like The Ring meets a good story! I loved it.

    Definitely a movie for the male gender. I thought I'd hate it, but it was rather enjoyable seeing naughty bimbos get theirs.
