Suicide Kings is a 1997 American crime thriller black comedy film directed by Peter O'Fallon, and starring Christopher Walken, Denis Leary, Sean Patrick Flanery, Johnny Galecki, Jay Mohr, Jeremy Sisto and Henry Thomas. Based on Don Stanford's short story The Hostage, the film follows the group of students who kidnap a respected former Mafia figure.
The movie gets its title from the “King of Hearts” in playing cards (which are often wild) as the king appears to be committing suicide by stabbing himself in the head. It has a 35% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes and grossed $1.7 million in the US, making it a flop. It has rendered a cult following.
