Confessions of a Mafia Hitman

Confessions of a Mafia Hitman

The Iceman - Confessions of a Mafia Hitman (2002) and The Iceman Tapes: Conversations with a Killer (1992) are HBO produced documentaries of the Mafia hitman, Richard Kuklinski.

After years of silence, "The Iceman" speaks. In two interviews a decade apart, Richard Kuklinski, a notorious top enforcer for the Gambino crime family, tells his unusual and gruesome story. Raised on—and immune to—violence, he kept his unorthodox job and tactics a secret from his adoring family. In 1986, after a long investigation, Kuklinski was betrayed by "the only man I didn't kill" and is serving multiple life sentences. Starring: Richard Kuklinski
