There was a B&W movie that was featured on the 2 disk street trash dvd documentary "meltdown memoirs".
It was about a man made of ice cream, who gets involved with the mob, and at the end he ends up committing suicide by going into a hot tub, and melting. Does anyone know what this film is? I remember it looking really cool, but I haven't been able to track it down...

Anyone here that has the 2 disc edition with the documentary, I would really appreciate your help finding the title of the film!

Thanks,

That might be the original short 16MM version of STREET TRASH before the storyline was totally changed.  It's on the Synapse Films DVD release.

It's an unreleased film actually. The title (or one of them) was SWIRLEE ('00). There was a short, 16 mm film made here http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0320555/ but the feature was never finished. The STREET TRASH people were involved in the making of the film and that's why it's on the DVD.
