Synopsis

Chris (Michael Vartan) and Tim (Matthew Lillard) murder their roommate, Rand (Randall Batinkoff), but stage everything to appear as a suicide, all because of a legend they'd heard that doing so would earn them perfect grade point averages at their college. Keri Russell plays Chris's girlfriend, Emma, and Dana Delany plays campus psychologist Dr. Ashley, who starts to figure out what is really going on all around her.

Personal Thoughts

I discovered this movie several days ago, and was glad to see that Netflix had it readily available for instant view. The Curve (also known as Dead Man's Curve) is a psychological thriller. I had never seen this movie before until now, and must say, I enjoyed it. It kind of reminded me of the movie "Wild Things", which came out the very same year this did. The movie ended up having one of those twist endings that were pretty common back in the height of the Teen Terror age. Matthew Lillard plays a similar type character to the one he does in scream (seems to be the perfect role for him).

Though not technically a horror movie, I had fun watching this one.
