Death Nurse

About This Movie

So, Death Nurse from '87, it’s got this gritty, unsettling vibe that really draws you in. The Shady Palms Clinic, where Edith and her bro Gordon operate, feels like a real nightmare wrapped in the mundane. The pacing is a bit off, but that just adds to the tension. You can almost feel the dread hang in the air as they care for their patients in such a twisted way—burial services included. The practical effects are low-fi but memorable, making the horror feel more tangible. The performances? You get a real sense of their derangement, especially from the nurse. It’s offbeat, and not your average slasher fare, definitely distinctive in its approach to the genre.
