1001 Movies Club - Kiss Me Deadly (1955)
#294. Kiss Me Deadly (1955)
Why It's In The Book: "Kiss Me Deadly is a thick-ear masterpiece, wrenched by director Robert Aldrich and screenwriter A.I. Bezzerides from Mickey Spillane's trash novel, shot through with poetry, unspeakable violence, hopped-up street talk, strange characters, and fringe-fantastical elements." -1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die

"While not quite the movie Double Indemnity is, Kiss Me Deadly is still very good and deserves to be mentioned among the great movies of the past."

Klaus Ming - 8/10
"The eventual discovery of the contents, which undoubtedly inspired Repo Man (1984), provides an out of the ordinary conclusion to what is otherwise is a very good, but pretty typical film noir murder mystery."

"It's completely satisfying when you allow yourself to experience it on that visceral gut level. Just don't try and rationalize it at all."

Movie Guy Steve - 6/10
"Kiss Me Deadly had its atomic heart in the right place, but it does too many things that prevent it from being taken seriously."

Siochembio - 6/10
"I love noir, but I don’t think I’ll rewatch this. It’s just too surreal for its own good, which pushes it past the thrilling point and into utter silliness."

Squish - 6/10
"The sheer amount of man-on-man face slapping has surpassed any expectations I would dream of seeing in any other Film-Noir. I expect Kiss Me Deadly holds the record."
