SPECIAL FEATURES: Commentary by the director and producer (co-writers Reb Braddock and John Maass); a making-of featurette complete with brief interviews with cast and crew; the 30 minute short film that caught Quentin Tarantino’s attention at a film festival in Italy; the even shorter ‘Baby Curdled’ – a film school directing project by John Maass; an extensive photo gallery mostly consisting of candid shots of the cast and crew; deleted scenes and an alternate ending; the original theatrical trailer; by far the coolest interactive menu – watch for the fly!; the commercials and made-for-tv movie that are seen in the film; the ‘dance of death’ rehearsal – you have got to see this!; probably more than I’m not recalling; Most features have an introduction/explanation by director Reb Braddock.
Comments: The late but great DVD of Curdled. Good quality and a huge bunch of cool extras make this black-comedy indie flick a great one to own on DVD. A totally funny and well-made film and the DVD has tons of extras. This is defintely a DVD that was worth the wait. Get it!
