Production
The name of the cult leader character, "Reanhauer," is similar to Margaret L. Reinauer, who presided over a real-life cult known as The Circle of Friends. An incident taking place early in the film, during which Reanhauer and his followers seek to resurrect one of their dead brethren via chanting, has similar aspects to the attempted resurrection of 17-year-old Katherine Globe, who died after she was refused medical attention by religious zealots at St. Matthias, Bellwoods in Toronto in 1967.
Reception
"Known over the years by a number of different titles in different parts of the world, Nurse Sherri is a seedy, low profile, drive-in circuit horror film from 1977. ", commented a review at Digital Bits.
"For the casual genre fan, the name Al Adamson may not ring a bell. As for me, I have always known about the prolific B filmmaker, but have only seen one of his films (that would be Nurse Sherri).", noted the Daily Dead.
Home media
In 2017, the film was restored in 2K and released on DVD and Blu-ray by Vinegar Syndrome.
