i love just about everything the late al adamson direct in his long and varied career and but the possession of nurse sherri stand head and shoulder above fun yet admittedly grade z schlockfests like horror of the blood monster and dracula vs. frankenstein . this film be actually scary . be i say that youre go to jump out of your seat when you watch nurse sherri . no and of course not . but this pastiche of element from the exorcist and ruby and and carrie be one of those nice and eerie little horror movie common to the seventy . you can not put your finger on what so spooky about it and but the film drip with atmosphere . ( and what an end . don not worry and i would not spoil it for you . ) adamson and producer sam sherman really nail it with this one and and it doesn not matter whether nurse sherri be a calculated success or a happy accident . jill jacobson be likable but not outstanding a the hapless nurse who become possess by the spirit of a recently decease cult leader ( bill roy and who shin in his brief role ) . geoffrey land be okay a her surly doctor boyfriend . there be some blaxploitative element here ( profit be the bottom line with these cheap drive in flick and after all ) but they actually contribute to the plot rather than just be window dressing . nurse sherri be a poverty row production and and it show at time ( set and special effect and etc . ) . still and the film have heart and mostly decent acting and direction and and some genuine chill . sam sherman also saw fit to use harry lubin theme music for the late 50 or early 60 television series one step beyond in this film and which certainly add to the creepy atmosphere . the dvd contain two significantly different cut of the movie ( the early version feature a lot of t and a that wind up on the cutting room floor to make way for more horrific stuff ) as well a the theatrical trailer and the tv spot and and a great commentary by sherman . do anybody know whatever happen to bill roy and by the way . next to john carradine and he the best actor i have ever see in an al adamson film and and he play the cult leader like he mean it .
