framptonhollis Similarly to The Secret Cinema' (another short film from Paul Bartel), 'Naughty Nurse' can be appreciated on both the surface and more parodic levels. 'Nurse' still manages to be genuinely sexually provocative while also being very funny and intentionally odd to some degree. It is a unique and straightforward sex romp that clocks in at an appropriately brief eight minutes. Definitely worth watching, even if you aren't particularly into it (and I mean 'into it' in a non-sexual manner, by the way), as it is super short.

SnoopyStyle Naughty Nurse is leaving the hospital at lunchtime. She rejects blood-soaked Nurse Dorothy's request for help. She dismisses Nasty Orderly's lunch offer. She takes the taxi to a seedy hotel. She has a nice light S&M encounter with Naughty Doctor. They get interrupted by Naughty Cop who has a couple of surprises of his own.This is Paul Bartel's second short. It's not quite as inventive as The Secret Cinema. It's a bit of shock considering the time period. The twist is fun but not revolutionary. I like Valorie Armstrong as the hard-nosed nurse. It's a solid short that shows the Bartel humor and his weird sensibilities.

rwint 5 out of 10 A women, who works as a nurse, uses her lunch hour to get together with a doctor in a seedy hotel room. Their they spend the time having weird, wild sex together. One day a policeman catches them in their act and this leads to ironic results. This is Bartel's second short following SECRET CINEMA and this one directly lead to his hiring of his first feature length film 1972's PRIVATE PARTS. It is easy to see why because like with ...PARTS it emphasizes a lot of kinkiness especially in relation to a non intercourse type of sex. This is surprisingly edgy in your face stuff and for it's time really seemed to push the envelope. Also like with his first feature it is technically well done, but could have been played out more. It's basically just a one joke movie with a twist ending that isn't too bad. There's also a deeper, darker side to it than just the sex angle. It seems to be a bit of a satire and just how detached people are from their jobs and how even educated professional people can be just as perverse as anyone else. It's bitingly funny to hear them discuss their next sexual adventure while performing on a live patient.

TelevisionJunkie This 8 minute short film, which was made as a companion to play with Paul Bartel's less-than-feature-length "The Secret Cinema," is a definite curio. The very thin plot revolves around a nurse and doctor, who meet in a cheap hotel and proceed to dress in leather-studded undergarments and rubber bands... While this isn't a XXX flick, as the porno-esque title would suggest, it creates an erotic atmosphere - an atmosphere that's appropriate of the Corman films Bartel went on to do, but not appropriate as a companion to "The Secret Cinema." It would've played much better with "Death Race 2000" or perhaps "Eating Raoul." This film wasn't bad, nor was it fantastic, just a curio with a strange ending....
