The film that I have chosen for this movie madness tournament is called The Iceman. This movie is a true story based on Richard Kuklinski who was a contract killer/mafia hitman for the Genovese family. He also worked for Newark's DeCavalcante crime family and New York City's Five Families, including the Gambinos. He started off as a hitman at the age of 18. Shortly after he met his wife and she knew nothing of his work, he was living a double life. At fisrt he worked dubbing pornographic films which he then supplies to a mob operated syndicate, but he tells his family that he dubs Disney cartoons. When he starts to supply to mob with porn is when he was introduced to them. They wanted him to be apart of their mob after they witnessed him have a fight in the bar later killing the man. He was known as the "iceman" because after he killed his victims he froze their bodies for a long period of time. This unfortunately started to catch up him when it was a summer day and there was a body found that was still frozen internally. He was also known for the crazy ways that he killed people such as putting a rope around someones neck and dragging them causing strangulation, using crossbows, and his personal favorite cyanide. A possible writing topic could be. how a persons environment effect their lifestyle.
