    • Quotes

      Gabriela: Do they talk?

      Paul Guell: What?

      Gabriela: The heads.

      Paul Guell: What do you mean?

      Gabriela: When you cut them...

      Paul Guell: No. It's the face. It's in their eyes.

      Gabriela: Yes, but after that. Sometimes the head says some words?

      Paul Guell: The head - doesn't - no. No.

      Gabriela: They're supposed to talk...

      Paul Guell: They don't, o...

      [gaining composure]

      Paul Guell: They don't. I know, okay? They don't.

      Gabriela: I think they talk. They could tell you something.

    • Crazy credits
      SPOILER At the very end of the credits, after the copyright notice, there is a scene showing Gabriela driving a car, with Eduardo, playing the tape she recorded with Paul's voice saying her name after his death.
    • Alternate versions
      Originally, the film ended with a slow motion shot of geese flying south as the main character did a voice over but director Reb Braddock decided to save that for his next film, "When fun goes south with the geese."

    The heads...do they talk?
    In my opinion, this is one of the most underrated movies of the 90s, featuring one of my all-time favorite performances by the enchanting Angela Jones. It is based on a short made in 1991, about a childlike murder-obsessed Colombian-American who takes a job as a maid...who cleans up after violent murders. Apparently, Tarantino liked the short so much that he cast Jones in Pulp Fiction and produced a full length version of "Curdled" with Jones and William Baldwin (who is surprisingly great.) This is one of my favorite black comedies and easily the funniest serial killer thriller ever. Angela Jones lights up the screen with her animated facial expressions (think Audrey Tautou) and quirky delivery. Oh, and this movie features one of the best dance sequences in a movie (yes, even better than Britt Ekland's in "The Wicker Man"). The recently released DVD is a blessing and surprisingly chockful of extras (including the original short film) for a movie that is apparently so reviled. The worst thing I can say about "Curdled" is that Braddock didn't go on to make another film and Jones went on to do a freakin "Children of the Corn" sequel. Recommend to all fans of serial killer movies and dark comedies. My rating: 10/10
