Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaBarbara Leigh later revealed that during her audition interview, director Stephanie Rothman asked her to expose her breasts "to see if they were worth photographing" because the role involved a nude scene on the beach. Leigh had never done that before and was very embarrassed, but since it was a woman asking, she did it.
- GoofsThe close-ups of Priscilla's eyes during the beach love scene when she and Les are tripping on acid show her pupils to be very small. On LSD, the pupils become extremely dilated.
- Quotes
Lynn: [as Victor forces his way into the passenger seat] Get out of here!
Victor Charlie: I'm not in yet! Besides, a woman should be protected, no matter how crazy she is.

Featured review
I rented a copy of this from my local Blockbuster expecting nothing much but the usual amount of T & A and sex. But after I watched it, I was surprised by how thoughtful it was, that it was about something after all.
I'm not going to go into the plot, because I think it's more effective if you enter into this film cold, knowing nothing about it.
This was the first film produced by Roger Corman's New World Pictures. Knowing Corman, I had figured that it would be low budget, but look like it cost more. I was right. Filmed on a budget of 150,000 it looks like it cost 1 million dollars.
The video box makes this film look like a sex romp. Anyone watching this film for sex alone is bound to be disappointed. This is a smart, sensitive film that deals with serious issues such as abortion, protests, independent living and moral conflict. One possible reason for this is "The Student Nurses" was directed by Stephanie Rothman, a woman. Therefore, it ends up being less sleazy and exploitative than if it had been directed by a man. Most exploitation films are sleazy, no brainers. It's great to see an exploitation film that makes you think when you finish seeing it.
