hrm...seems like they might. Now that displeases me if they don't show him do that. Damnit. Why you had to fucking ruin the mood w/ truth? Fuck....

They made us watched the HBO documentary in 6th grade. To this day I still don;t remember what the point was other than to scare us shitless.

Whoa whoa whoa whoa...ONE of them. Not THE best. I'd give that to Daniel Day-Lewis. Though...it'd be pretty badass to see a Shannon/Day-Lewis movie. That'd be intense.

I've learned that "based on a true story" gives the filmakers license to do anything they want with certain aspects of a story. As long as its a good film, I'm cool with it.

Trailers can trick you. Hopefully that's the case here.

I remember watching these a while back....Shannon can definitely pull off the role.

I saw this at TIFF back in September - it was good, with a great performance by Michael Shannon, but there were parts that were extremely slow. Winona Ryder was pretty terrible and her presence hurt the movie IMO.

I wonder also if they will portray him as a "Leon type" bad ass assassin/hit man or the psychotic serial killer he really was. There were hundreds of people her murdered just because he was compelled to. He hunted the homeless for years.

Re: The Iceman (Michael Shannon, Del Toro, Evans)
That's been discussed earlier in this thread. It looks like they are portraying him as an anti-hero rather than the sick, twisted, wife and child abusing fuck that he was.
It really bothers me, but I bet it's a good movie regardless.
