Trivia

Lead star Paz de la Huerta has claimed the movie has "destroyed her acting career". In 2015, La Huerta filed a $55 million lawsuit against Lionsgate after sustaining an injury on-set (she was clipped by an ambulance) during a scene. La Huerta was also unhappy that her voice had been dubbed by another actress in certain scenes without her knowledge. The lawsuit was unsuccessful.

Quotes

[first lines]
Abby Russell: My name is Abigail Russell. I look like a slut. But don't be fooled, this is merely a disguise to lure the dangerous predators who walk among us. This is their jungle. Their breeding ground. And tonight I'm on the hunt. These are the cheaters - the married lying scum. They are like diseased cells, cultured in alcoholic petri dishes, but destroy unsuspecting families, and infect millions of innocent vaginas. There is not cure for the married cock. Only me, the Nurse.

User Reviews

Was there a casting director on this one?

Nurse isn't a Masterpiece for sure, but it isn't the worst movie ever. With Nurse you will have an epiphany : Paz DE la Huerta is certainly the worst actress ever. She can't talk properly, she can't make you interested in any psychological aspect of the character. You just don't believe. She is the living proof that not everyone can act, and she's doing it perfectly. And because of her, what could have been good in the movie is totally ruined. What a waste of money for producers and of time for me. It is just seems like the role was already assigned to her even before the script has been written. I'm quite sure that someone didn't know that making movie with professionals was a must in this industry. It is a pity.
