Here some working examples extracted from my config:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
    ...
    (org-agenda-skip-function
     '(org-agenda-skip-entry-if 'notdeadline))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

and

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
    ...
    (org-agenda-skip-function
     '(org-agenda-skip-entry-when-regexp-matches))
    (org-agenda-skip-regexp "\\[#A\\]")))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

A more complex one:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
  (add-to-list 'org-agenda-custom-commands
               `("r" "All active tasks, by due date"
                 ((agenda ""
                          ((org-agenda-overriding-header "Today")
                           ;; !FIXME! We don't see "timed" DEADLINE
                           (org-agenda-skip-function
                            (lambda ()
                              (let* ((dl (org-entry-get nil "DEADLINE")))
                                (if (or (not dl)
                                        (equal dl "")
                                        (org-time> dl (org-time-today)))
                                    (progn (outline-next-heading) (point))))))
                           (org-agenda-skip-scheduled-if-deadline-is-shown t)
                           (org-agenda-span 'day)
                           (org-deadline-warning-days 0))))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
