Kiss of Death

Kiss of Death (1995) is a crime thriller directed by Barbet Schroeder that you can watch online on iFILM. David Caruso plays Jimmy Kilmartin — an ex-con who just wants out. One favour for an old associate, one bad night, and he's back inside doing someone else's time.

Getting out doesn't mean getting free. Prosecutor Calvin Hart, played by Samuel L. Jackson, gives Jimmy a stark ultimatum: wire up, get close to Little Junior Brown, and bring him down — or face the consequences alone. Nicolas Cage's Little Junior is genuinely unsettling: a steroid-pumped psychopath who bench-presses between murders and laughs at nothing. Helen Hunt plays Jimmy's wife, who pays the price for every move he makes. The film squeezes its characters from both ends — the law and the mob — until there's nowhere left to stand.

Schroeder keeps the story rooted in New York grit, no glamour, no easy exits. Stream Kiss of Death (1995) online on iFILM.
