2002 BMW 330 6 cyl All Wheel Drive Automatic

My bmw 330XI overheats into the red and it seems at that point my radiator fan shuts off and it blows a hose and spits antifreeze at me, It happens fairly quickly giving me 15 to 20 minutes after starting it before it happens, both times it happened shortly after being parked. Please help me find a solution to my problem.

The possibility that something catastrophic has happened is present. You may have a cracked cylinder head.
