Kiss me deadly was interesting.... I'm noticing a pattern in these film noir movies, the main character is always invincible. Hammer does unthinkable grotesque things. So grotesque that in one of the scenes in the shed near the pool, the enemy is so scared that he runs away leaving his fallen comrade. This is why the ending they showed first didn't make sense. Mike Hammer can't die, watching him throughout the whole movie your rooting for him to solve the case. But when you see him die you are automatically disappointed. This is why in my opinion the ending they later dubbed as the true ending works better for the cinema. Why? Well thats simple because Mike hammer escapes with his bittie even after being first drugged then burned and if that wasn't enough shot in the gut.
