Programmer's Pick

You want your slasher cut with a healthy dose of sleaze and a side of frog dissection? This one's got you covered. The only nursing school where 'split personality' is a prerequisite and the student body count is strictly extracurricular.

Overview

The Florence Nightingale Institute is known for producing top-tier nurses, but beneath its respectable façade lurks something far more sinister. Under the peculiar and perverse rules of director Dr. Dorian Cabala, the institute becomes the hunting ground for a killer who targets students, leaving behind three star-shaped wounds as a signature. As the trainee nurses prepare for a stage production of 'Doctor Jekyll and Mr. Hyde', two detectives keep watch over the unusual proceedings, suspicious of both Cabala and his staff. Blending horror and sexploitation, the film explores a world where professionalism quickly gives way to fear, voyeurism, and violence, all set within the confines of a secluded nursing school.
