Summary: A head turner
Review: "Curdled" stars Angela Jones (as Gabriela, who keeps a scrapbook of newspaper stories about grisly murder) and William Baldwin (as Paul Guell, the Blue Blood killer, who beheads Miami socialites). Quentin Tarantino produced the movie, and it's got a "Pulp Fiction" feel to it, but it's also got Gabriela – A woman who turns heads and makes her gruesome obsession seem like a sweet pastime. We're glad for Gabriela when she finds her perfect job. Hired by a forensic cleaning service, she mops up after violent crime. One evening, Gabriela returns to the scene of an especially bloody murder and retraces the events of the crime, when suddenly she stumbles into the Blue Blood killer himself. Naturally, the two of them tango.

Summary: The Funniest Film Noir Ever
Review: Do you ever pick up one of those movies at the video store and say, "Wow, this is going to be so terrible that I just have to see it!" Well, I do, and that's exactly what I said about "Curdled". I was so wrong - this film is fantastic! Originally a short film, Curdled struck Tarentino like lightning and he promptly urged (forced) Braddock to make it into a feature length movie. I would not ordinarily apply such a cliché phrase as "wickedly funny" to anything, but that is exactly what this film noir is. Gabrielle (magnificently performed by Angela Jones) is teetering on the brink of an obsession with serial killers. Her consuming desire to understand the mind of a murderer motivates her to land a job with a post-murder cleaning service. Her new occupation allows her the opportunity to get closer to the crimes than she had anticipated. This film is out of this world, if you don't mind the sight of blood and laughing at crazy people, that is. I giggle sadistically to myself even now at the thought of it. Oh yeah, William Baldwin is in it.

Summary: Stick With It, The Pay-Off Is Worth the Wait.
Review: I have recommended this Quirky Little Thriller to Many-a-friend and they told me they turned it off after the first half an hour because "It Was Too Boring." But I'm telling Everybody, Stick With It, the last 40 Minutes are truly Inspired Cinema. The Film on a whole is Startlingly Original, daringingly dark and.. Great Entertainment. It gets four stars instead of five as the start IS a little slow-going, (which is probably why it fell into Obscurity) But it's still an All-round Great Film.PS: Quinten Tarantino Executive Produced this film, and there is a reference to Seth And Richard Gecko from "From Dusk Till Dawn". Kelly Preston makes a Cameo in Both Films.

Summary: A must see
Review: I was very surprised at how much I liked this movie. A student film, but with a little help from Quenten Tarantino he enables us to enjoy the dark side of life too. And I know, I know, not another Baldwin brother, but William pulls off the serial killer charactor like no one else could. A must see for anyone with a VCR and good sense of humor.

Summary: Thick Blood
Review: If you enjoy quirky dark humor, disdain media's macabre obsession with murder and mayhem but find it all rather fascinating despite yourself, and don't get queezy at the sight of blood - lots of it, then this movie delivers. William Baldwin, a bit creepy anyway, is a particularly creepy serial killer. Angela Jones' innocent wide-eyed ghoulish lust and studiousness over accounts of gruesome murders is hypnotizing. And when the movie has ended and is rewinding itself, Angela's character should have assuaged any guilt you may have been harboring over your own small weakness for watching (films like this) or reading about grisly goings-ons.
