Who Do I Gotta Kill? 1992  N/R, 86 min.
Genre: Comedy
aka: Me and the Mob
Director: Frank Rainone
Cast: James Lorinz, Tony Darrow, John Costelloe, Vincent Pastore, Frank Gio, Richard Bright, Sandra Bullock, Stephen Lee, Anthony Michael Hall, Steve Buscemi
Things just aren't going right for Jimmy (James Lorinz). His latest novel isn't selling, his girlfriend left him (right in the middle of sex), he's kicked out of his favorite bar, and he can't seem to come up with a storyline for his next book. He even fails in suicide attempts. So when it is suggested that he write a real-life account of the underworld, he joins the mob. It just keeps on going downhill from there in this low budget effort. It was even renamed as "Me and the Mob" for video release to capitalize on the popular "Married to the Mob."
