Incredible Crime Movies That Were Based On True Events

The Iceman (2012)

The Iceman is based on the true story of the longtime notorious hitman named Richard Kuklinski. Originally, he was convicted of only murdering five individuals but he later claimed that he had killed over 100 men. During his decades as a contract killer, he managed to keep the secret from his wife and kids up until his capture. Although not always discussed in the true story, the film alludes to his behavior possibly stemming from his abusive childhood on both of his parent’s parts as well as his increasing sloppiness that eventually led to his capture in 1986. In 2006 he died in prison at the age of 70.
