It may contain noir elements, but this film has it's own standout identity. From the moment it begins, you know that you are in for something different. This is some solid pulp entertainment.

Samuel Fuller marches to his own beat. I liked Shock Corridor, so I watched Naked Kiss based on that experience. Part noir, part social commentary, only Fuller could mix heartwarming (handicapped children singing "Bluebird of Happiness") and sleazy (bald woman beating her pimp!). You may find it fascinating, or maybe confusing, but never dull.

After a really strange intro, I nearly gave up on this one. However, I decided to give it another shot and I was glad. It was actually a pretty good movie and it aired on TCM.
