Smart, politically-charged, and still relevant after five decades, THE STUDENT NURSES is an uncommonly humanist exploitation masterpiece from co-writer/director Stephanie Rothman (THE VELVET VAMPIRE). The story follows four young nurses as they navigate their careers and love lives. One falls in love with a terminally ill patient. A second woman is impregnated by a drugged biker. The third nurse's career is jeopardized when she makes a grave miscalculation. And the fourth is forced to leave the unit when her revolutionary boyfriend commits an unspeakable act. Produced by Rothman and Roger Corman, this was the first release from the prolific New World Pictures. *DCP preservation courtesy of Shout! Studios*
