People familiar with the Troma-repertoire know they should never except masterpieces (or even "good" films), yet this piece of junk is worse than all their other incompetent productions put together! "Maniac Nurses (find ecstasy)" is an unendurably sick fantasy that obviously sprung from the perverted mind of some untalented weirdoes and Troma decided to distribute it as a horror/exploitation film. The initial ineptness-chuckles this movie cause quickly turn into tedious obstacles and, eventually, you have to struggle very hard in order not to throw the DVD far out the window. The...um... 'story' revolves on a group of deranged women who entrench themselves in some sort of heavily guarded private-hospital (God knows why). They fill their days by whipping each other, walk around in sexy lingerie and occasionally they play sleazy variants of the "most dangerous game" with unfortunate campers. The things that went horribly wrong in this production are too numerous to mention, and I guarantee that you'll never ever come across a movie more retarded than this one.MST3K-fans would orgasm over watching this flick: the narration is hilarious (seriously, what the hell is this guy talking about all the time?), the editing is a joke and the dialogues sound like they were written by an army of illiterate monkeys. The only aspect mildly admirable about it is that the creators obviously knew their sleaze-classics. The über-nurses are named Ilsa and Greta (after the infamous 70's exploitation franchise) and there sometimes are (unintentional?) references towards classic WIP-movies. "Maniac Nurses" also contains loads of graphic gore and tons of blood and I'm sure that, if it would have been filmed more professionally, it could had become one of the grossest and most offensive films ever. Instead of this, it only looks ludicrous and pathetic. It has to be said, though: the girls all have pretty faces and ravishing bodies. They probably all secretly hoped that this production would be their spring-board to ultimate Hollywood success. Awfully sorry girls...you're not even talented enough to make it in the porn business.However, one element of "Maniac Nurses" is downright brilliant and I can't resist mentioning it (spoiler): at a certain point in the film, they refer to a child supposedly born with an Elvis-tattoo on its little chest! Priceless!!

I have to wonder how bad this movie was before Troma got its hands on it. I bet Troma is responsible for the overwrought voiceovers and tourist footage of the porn palaces of Paris but this is still one snail-paced piece of exploitation cinema. A lot of time is spent on watching the nurses lounge around in lingerie and walk around the woods in tall boots and cutoffs with Uzis. Some heads explode and feet are sliced off but this movie just doesn't quite cut the Grey Poupon mustard.

The full title for this film is Maniac Nurses Find Ecstasy and yes do they ever. This film actually started out as a porn flick back in 1990 and now we have only other pantomimed versions available. Although not as graphic as other reviewers have mentioned but none the less quite gory. Not a bad film overall but I would reccommend to watch Bloodsucking Freaks instead. Oh did I forgot to mention that this is the sequel to Bloodsucking Freaks. Check it out.

This isn't "true" Troma production, Troma probably only distributed it, but it is good example of same of the most bizarre Troma productions. I'm now convinced that Troma's policy is: "You have the most stupid idea for the movie, we will make a serious feature film based on your idea. We are not afraid of the most bizarre ideas, they give us the chance to make another film".If you want to see something really strange, see this movie. But be prepared for strange experience. I watched entire movie late night fascinated how far they could go. And they really went quite far. Fascinating.
