The Curve is a 1998 thriller/neo-noir starring Matthew Lillard, Keri Russell, and Michael Vartan. The story is about two roommates who kill a third roommate and make it look like suicide, in order to be given a 4.0 GPA due to extenuating circumstances (see: Pass by catastrophe). The film is also known as Dead Man's Curve, but was changed to The Curve to avoid confusion with the film Dead Man on Campus, a comedy about two college roommates who try to find another depressed roommate to push over the edge, in order to receive all A's.
The movie was written & directed by Dan Rosen. Music by Shark
A soundtrack album featuring music from the film was released by Chromatic Records.
Tim, Chris and Rand are campus roommates. They are not the closest of friends. When it is announced as being usual to get the best possible grades as compensation for the psychic stress of a roommates' suicide, Tim and Chris decide to kill Rand. After Rand's "suicide", his girlfriend Natalie takes her life, too. She was the roommate of Chris' girl Emma. Who's tricking who? Written by Julian Reischl
Urban Legend has it that if you kill your college roomate, you get a 4.0 for the semester. So when Chris goes along with Tim pushing Rand off the curve, they have good reasoning for it. Besides, Rand is always being a jerk to his girlfriend Natalie who is Emma's roomate. After his girlfriend Natalie finds out about his death, she kills herself by jumping off the curve. Later Chris's girlfriend Emma tries to convince him that Tim is setting him up for the murder and trying to seduce her. Then suddenly Chris's girlfriend is taking a 4.0. Is Emma behind this too, is Rand really dead, and does Chris have something planned for Tim? If so why everyone is playing with each others head? Written by Kyle
