Nursie

Incredible camera work and direction. It's worth seeing just for the camera tricks. I still can't figure out how they did some of that stuff and I've been in the industry for 22 years. C. Thomas Howell is back... with a vengeance.

I attended the Women in Film screening of Nursie in L.A. and thoroughly enjoyed it. A small movie but a possible cult hit. Savannah Boucher is brilliant as Nursie and David Parker is great and very believable as Nursie's brother, Raymond. C. Thomas Howell does an excellent job as the doctor. Good script...music is good... love the end title song. I wouldn't mind seeing it again.

My favourite bit of this Misery-style thriller was when C Thomas Howell was pretending to drive a car when there was clearly a static tree visible from the window of the car he was in. Naturally I braced myself for a nosebleed inducing film but somehow Nursie managed to improve greatly and didn't cause too much pain at all.

C Thomas Howell is a doctor that ends up in a car crash and ends up at what appears to be an old folks home with a deranged nurse in charge, which is kind of like Misery if you think about it. Then again, Nursie manages to hold its own and never stays still for one minute. Once C Thomas (is that what friends call him? Or do they call him C? Or does he even have friends?)anyway once C or C Thomas gets stuck in the old folks home things kind of pick up and the movie keeps moving all the way to the end, which was kind of stupid but then again most of the endings of these films are stupid, really.

Worth it for a quid! Film 2000 have this out on DVD, with trailers for films you'll never, ever want to watch

Wow. I just finished screening the film and I really can't believe some of the things I just saw. Whoever wrote this film must have a really warped mind because the subject matter is just so perverse. Stephen King look out because here comes Maxine Jordan!!!

I was visiting a friend in Los Angeles and saw this movie in his DVD collection. I had never heard of it. I popped it in late one night. I'm here to tell you, it's a great little character piece. You can't help but like Nursie even though she's terrible and you hate her. The acting in this movie is excellent. It's one of those movies where although it's scary, you have to laugh many times. I gave it to a friend and her kids loved it. Nursie is a character you have to feel sorry for yet you want her taken out.

My favorite parts are the ones which show just how sick Nursie is. A pathetic aging woman looking for love and thinking she can force someone to love her. Nursie goes in and out of sanity. A very sick movie.
