I just don't know what to think of this movie. It's made in Thailand so I have to give it some credit. The version I saw was Thai spoken with English subs. The story line is simple. A hospital are selling body parts from the dead. The doctor responsible for the act is in love with one of the nurses. But when he falls in love with her sister things go of course wrong. As stated on the cover Hostel meets The Grudge i would like to say, based on the grudge. But it is pleasant to see what they made of the movie. The strangest thing to watch is the shower scene. I guess nudity wasn't allowed because she showers with her clothes on. Some killings are gory and the red stuff flows frequently. If you are into Japanese ghost movies then I recommend this flick, otherwise don't watch it

Don't look for a story here. To call it basic would be an understatement and an insult to any story writer. But that is probably not the reason you're watching this. You may be watching this, because of all the beautiful ladies involved or because of the blood and violence this promises and gives you. On the beautiful part, do not expect any nudity here. Whether that is something you approve of or not is up to you. What is ridiculous though: Showering fully clothed! Why even bother? Ok because the scene is supposed to frighten you, still ... Form fitting clothing yes, but that is the most you get.

Which in itself is ok in my book, but there is almost no distinction between the characters. They all seem to be one shallow person - copies of each other one might say. So if you don't care for the decent effects (for the budget), this will annoy you or even bore you

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.

A doctor and a group of nurse are selling bodies on the black market. The doctor is also screwing all the nurses. One is expecting to marry him and her own sister turns up pregnant by him. She threatens to revel the illegal activities as payback, but the rest of the nurses get to her first.

Now, seven days later she returns from the dead to exact her revenge. At first it wasn't particularly bad, but it kept getting worse as the victims went on. At least one was very gruesome, and a little bizarre. There was copious amounts of blood spilled. Horror fans will like that.

The nurses were very attractive, but don't expect to see anything but form fitting clothing. They even shower with all their clothes on, if you can believe that! A little too much screaming for me, but fans of Asian horror will find it interesting.

I was really disappointed with this movie. It was not scary. It was not gory. It was not sexy. The shower scene was one of the stupidest things I've ever seen in a movie. But that scene also defines what was wrong with the movie. If you are going to do something, commit to it. If you aren't going to have a naked girl showering, don't bother having her go into the shower. If you are going to have a movie called "Sick" Nurses, then be sick. The gore scenes copped-out, they pulled away before it got really bad or showed reactions and not the act itself. The body harvesting and the source of the ghost powers are poorly defined. The movie just doesn't do enough or go far enough to be worth watching.

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

I watched this cinemafilm by myself in the dark and the only thing I was scared of was of this movie but not because it was scary because it was the stupid! The "plot" if you can "call" it that is about a group of nurses and a ghost man who is getting revenge on them!

There is some sexuals in it but not enough to please the horniest of you. The gore is lame too but there is plenty of it. The storyline which is the most important aspect is not interesting enough, it has a sorry excuse for one.

They had no story. So instead of sorry. They made it gory.

That's a rap I came up with to state my distaste for this kind of cinemafilm and this has been a review telling you to avoid SICK NURSES.

Come on... this movie is so unbelievably overrated. First of all... what is it supposed to be anyway? If this is supposed to be a horror movie its a total fail:

• most scenes are ripped off other movies, including the standard long haired ghost woman, hair horror with chicks entangled in endless strands of hair, a birthing scene ripped directly out of Miikes Gozu and this movie NEVER is in any way creepy or shocking although some stuff is rather over the top.

If its a comedy (and it must be since most of this movie is so stupid it can't be serious) its a fail either because I was simply staring in disbelief rather than laughing when this happens:

• the whole movie is full of showing sexy nurses showing off their bodies yet never showing any nudity... there is even a shower scene of a girl dressed in workout clothes. - There's some gore and some of it is pretty "sick". For example one nurse swallows razorblades, then rips off her jaw and when everything is drenched in her blood a dead fetus flies into her gaping mouth... Yeah right, WTF??? - While nurses get killed off one by one a black painted chick watches them, their arms turn black and their limbs start punching them or dipping their heads in ashtrays. Its kind of a unfunny version of "idle hands"... it must be meant in a funny way but its just not - One nurse walks around with a giant over-sized handbag over her head, in the end losing both handbag and head

The movie is full of that stuff but to top it off you get a ridiculous plot about a hospital stuff selling dead bodies (one of course taking ghostly revenge), everybody having sex with seemingly the only doctor in the hospital who turns out to be bi-sexual and haunted by a tranny lover. The whole fun gets drowned in a pseudo-artistic direction which seems fond of dipping scenes in dramatic colorful lighting with the problem that the lighting never has a meaning or supports atmosphere. Like all elements in this movie... its just there.

So in conclusion... you can throw all J-Horror movies in a blender, have the stuff directed by a gay lobotomy-patient who watched to many art-house movies and you might get this mess of a disjointed movie.

Stay away unless you want to laugh at handbag-heads and flying fetuses.

I wasn't really expecting the humor and self-mocking way 'Sick Nurses' presents its material. I was expecting a more serious outing. This ain't Shakespeare! Don't come here for a deep, intricate story. This is a fun, light on plot flick with some creative death. The film gives each woman a bit of screen time, enough to learn her compulsion. And the women, of course are all young and attractive, mucking about in form fitting nurse uniforms. The film takes place inside a patient-less hospital with a disproportionate staff of nurses that seem to live on the premise. They spend their time kissing and giggling, trying on paper earrings, exercising and vomiting. You know, all the things us women do when we are alone. The characterizations are exaggerations of female behavior and the personalities are way over-the-top. There are a few humorous and self-mocking scenes between the various women I found entertaining, but at the same time, had me looking forward to their death. The ghost is the stereotypical long black haired ghost but has been given a comically sadistic attitude and takes great pleasure watching her victims die. The first half of this film is set-up and background, but the second half is all about the death. The wonderfully wicked and wacky way the gals die is definitely the highlight of this film. That poor bulimic girl! You can use your imagination on how she will die, but you would be unlikely to see this coming. I don't want to spoil all the fun, but each death is practically an art project. The effects are generally decent, although there is some unnecessary use of CGI that looked pretty damn cheesy. It may be light on plot but you can't deny 'Sick Nurses' its craftiness. 'Sick Nurses' is a silly, cheeky little film. Throw in some creatively nasty death scenes where the revenge is based on each woman's vice and you've got yourself a tasty Thai treat. Recommended.

This is a typical Asian type horror film. It is the dead ghost lady that shows one eye and has long hair. Luckily, this ghost had a different power compared to most you see in these types of films. She had the ability to control the living. They say on the 7th day of a girls death, she will come back to seek revenge on anyone who killed her or tried to take her love. Well this happens. There is more to the story, but it is a little twisted. You will have to watch to see. Basically the story is seven sexy nurses and their doctor get haunted by another nurse who was killed by them. The movie is more low budget and the story is twisted, yet really mixed up at parts. The movie takes place in all of 20 minutes or so, but everything is basically happening at the same time. A lot of the nurses are just for show because their acting is pretty bad. The scare factor is not that high, but the gore is pretty high. There are two things about this movie that will keep the viewer interested. If you like sexy nurses and if you like gore. The movie to me was mostly fun to watch. The ghost had a different way of killing each girl and I kept wondering what would happen to the next. So that was my main enjoyment. Other than that, the movie was just OK. There is also a scene in the credits that has nothing to do with the actually movie. It is just all the nurses on the beach playing around. So there you have it.

This is a film that wallows and writhes in ecstatic abandon with the pure joy of being a B-Movie. I'm sure it never pretends to be anything else, and as such should be rated in those terms. Maybe as a 'film' it deserves its IMDb rating of 4.3, but as an exploitation/horror flick it would have to rate a solid 7.5. For those who enjoy the genre, you should find much to love.

The basic premise is this ... get a bunch of babes in form-fitting nurse costumes, point the camera at them a lot while they're walking away, introduce the obligatory Asian hair ghost, and sprinkle liberally with copious amounts of blood and creative death sequences.

Yeah its got a story, but who cares. Read one of the other reviews if that concerns you.

Fans of Asian horror will no doubt find it somewhat derivative - this is a 2007 film using the whole hair-ghost angle that was already tired and overdone in 2005. Connoisseurs will also recognise a famous scene lifted from Takashi Miike's Gozu, but in the spirit of Tarantino lets call it 'an homage'. In any case, it really doesn't matter - the film is too much fun to get hung up on critical technicalities. Crack open a beer and enjoy the show!

I did not end up liking this movie. While I was watching it, it seemed like there was just one crazy, confusing scene after another. The horror scenes were not especially scary. The thrills were not really shocking.

Once I made it to the end of the movie, I realized it was just a standard ghost come back for revenge story. I thought the twist at the end was dumb as well.

This film is difficult to review. The story just wasn't much of a story but it could've been better if the script had received more attention. It has been filmed well and it moves at a nice pace. The actors were just so-so in my opinion. The horror had its moments and were poetical in some ways but the blood looked more like fruit punch because the consistency was off. I think that this is gonna be hit and miss for a lot of folks.

This movie is terrible. I had to quit it after 40 minutes because I couldn't stand it anymore and I rarely quit movies. I felt like I've just wasted 40 minutes of my life. Everything about this movie sucks. The acting is terrible. The plot doesn't even matter because of this over-the-top dumpsterfire of acting.

All the "creepy" seens have been done before but 10 times better.

I've been watching asian horror movies for almost two decades so my standrads are high. I don't expect every movie to be great but this movie just had nothing going for it. There was nothing special, nothing unique about it.

If your are looking for a good asian horror movie stay away from this one.

I have just watched the Thai horror film Sick Nurses. I thought that it was an excellent Asain horror film, It was set in an empty Thai hospital, where a doctor and his seven nurses are involved in the selling of body parts on the black market. Tawan, one of the nurses, threatens to tell someone what is going on. The dealer in bodies does not delivery Tawan's corpse for a week. As midnight gets nearer on the seventh day after the murder, each of the remaining nurses as well as Dr. Taa, faces a supernatural revenge upon them. I found some parts of the film quite graphic to watch at certain times. two of the most disturbing senses were when one of the young nurses was trapped by a mass of hair which managed to wind itself around her body, and a scene in the lift were another nurses mobile phone looked like it was embedded in her face and she had to spit pieces of the phone out of her mouth!!. I would recommend this film to people as it is a very good horror film, but some parts may be quite graphic for some people to watch. 7/10

Sick Nurses (2007) is a movie I recently watched on Tubi. The storyline follows a hospital every nurse wears high heels, takes long looks at themselves in the mirror and a subset of them illegally harvest organs. One day one of the spirits of their victims returns to take revenge for their selfish ways.

This movie is codirected by Piraphan Laoyont (Bangkok Dangerous) and Thodsapol Siriwiwat (Suicide Squad) and stars Ase Wang (Drink-Drank-Drunk), Libby Brien (Don't Close your Blinds) and Philip Hersh (The Host),

The opening scene where the ghost comes out of the bag was promising...then there was a sequence of scenes of nurses working in heels, playing patty cake and taking showers fully clothed. The ghost itself was a lazy done makeup job; however, I was shocked the gore at the end was pretty good. There's a good "tongue" scene in this that's worthwhile.

Overall this is a movie I don't know how I made it through. I would score this a 1/10 and recommend skipping it.

This horror movie from Thailand seems to be a quite ordinary one in the beginning as we have a look on the very generic plot. An evil manipulator and doctor and his libertine nurses illegally sell dead bodies. As one of the nurses that honestly loves the doctor finds out that he is unfaithful to her and sleeps with her own sister and pretty much all of the nurses, she awakens from her dreams and menaces the entire team to tell about their criminal actions. Instead of sacrificing himself and marrying the young woman, the doctor orders to get her out of their way and the team kills her in a terrible act of violence. One week later, the ghost of the dead nurse comes back to haunt the hospital and seeks for revenge. While the doctor is at a ceremony to get a price for his outstanding works and tries to sell another dead body, the nurses fight for their lives within the walls of the hospital.

What makes the charm of the movie isn't the acting or the atmosphere but rather the very beautiful actresses and the different acts of vengeance. But as the movie risks to lose this charm after a while, there are a few interesting elements that come into play such as flashbacks from the past that tell us more about the different characters that all seem to be quite alike in the beginning which eventually isn't the case. What really rates up this standard horror movie is its interesting twist in the end that is very hard to see coming. The last scenes of the movie are hectic, dramatical and very emotional and will keep you on the edge of your seats.

In the end, this movie is more interesting as it seems in the beginning. It's no masterpiece but a well done horror movie with a couple of good ideas and a lot of beautiful women and a good choice for an entertaining movie night with some friends. As this movie comes from Thailand it also gets a little exotic bonus and is a nice addition to the collection of fans of Asian cinema.

This started off really weak for me because I felt it was being weird without developing the plot much. The bizarre-ness could've complemented a plot instead of been the central focus. It got really old. The ending was unexpected for me, though, so i'm glad I finished it.

Vengeful, female ghosts have long been a staple of the Asian horror scene, but have suffered from serious over-exposure in recent years: a glut of titles such as The Ring, The Eye and The Grudge, plus countless sequels, imitators and remakes, now means that any film featuring a dead girl crawling out of a TV, fridge, teapot, toilet, or any other household appliance for that matter, is unlikely to pique my interest.

That is, however, unless the film in question is Sick Nurses, which features a bevy of sexy Thai nurses in various states of undress (always a plus point in my book!), some enjoyably sick scenes of gore, an outrageous twist that is seriously demented, and a creepy ghost whose exaggerated appearance and sadistic supernatural antics are a delicious parody of the whole spooky ghost genre.

Admittedly, apart from the scenes in which the tasty titular nurses exercise, cavort and shower fully clothed (WTF?), the first half of the film is fairly unremarkable, with the supernatural stuff limited to the black-faced spook popping up in the background to try and scare her intended victims; but by the time the credits have rolled, viewers will have been treated to, amongst other things, gangs of hairy faced zombie nurses, a flying killer foetus, hot twins who kiss each other, forced scalpel blade munching, bodily dismemberment, a decapitation via handbag(?!?!), the birth of a fully grown person, and a surprise revelation involving a sex change operation—all of which is delightfully silly, extremely messy, and very entertaining.

7.5 out of 10, rounded up to 8 for IMDb.

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 until 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 sucks when a horror film is boring. Impressive VFx, especially the practical effects. Looks like a film school experimental, without having a sound script or director.
