I'm the Anti-Christ. You got me in a vendetta kind of mood. You tell the angels in heaven you never seen evil so singularly personified as you did in the face of the man who killed you.

~ Vincenzo Coccotti introducing himself to Clifford Worley.
Vincenzo "Vincent" Coccotti is the main antagonist in the 1993 action-romance film True Romance. Despite being the biggest opponent, he only appears in one lengthy scene as his men are the ones sent to carry out his work.
Vincenzo Coccotti is a Sicilian consigliere for local Detroit mobster "Blue" Lou Boyle. Sent with some hitmen to the abode of Mr. Clifford Worley, the estranged father of Clarence Worley whom they tracked down by Clarence's driver's license, accidentally left behind at the place owned by pimp boss Drexl Spivey - whom Clarence had recently murdered during a confrontation between them. Coccotti tries to get the current whereabouts of Clarence and more importantly Boyle's drugs.
However, he quickly underestimates his hit, as Clifford turns out to be an incredibly difficult character. And during this time Vincent's learns that his wife C.R. is being held hostage at the address that they find on the fridge. In spite of beatings and tortures Clifford not only never reveals anything he knows of Clarence, he goes so far as to personally offend Coccotti by telling him that Sicilians were "spawned by ni--ers" (after realizing that he is going to die anyway).
Ambivalent with Cliff's bravery, showing signs of both respect for him and frustration for being unable to get anything out of him Coccotti gives him an affectionate kiss on the cheek (a signature move of Mafias about to kill someone) before brandishing a gun and shooting him multiple times - killing Clifford in the end. As he shot Clifford to death, Coccotti murmured that he has not killed a person since 1984 before pumping more leads into Clifford's body. The trip is not wasted however, as one of the henchmen find information on Clarence's whereabouts stuck to the refrigerator. Coccotti then ordered his men to "fix this f-cked up family for good" by hunting down Clarence and killing him for good. Vincenzo is not seen again for the rest of the movie, as his hitman Virgil along with the other mafia members would unsuccessfully carry out his order as they get killed as it appears the 2 lovers escaped Coccotti as they were on the run from Blue Lou Boyle's gang.

“
I'm the Antichrist. You got me in a vendetta kind of mood. You tell the angels in Heaven if they ever seen evil so singularly personified as they did in the face of the man who killed you. My name is Vincent Coccotti. I work as counsel for Mr. Blue Lou Boyle, the man your son stole from. I hear you were once a cop, so I can assume you've heard of us before. Am I correct? [...] I'm glad. Hopefully it means we can cut out the part of the conversation where you're wondering how full of shit I am.

We're gonna have a little Q and A, so please, under the risk of sounding redundant, make your answers genuine.

That smarts, doesn't? To get slammed in the nose. Fucks you all up. You get that pain shootin' through your brain, your eyes fill up with water. It ain't any kind of fun, but what I have to offer you, that's about as good as it's ever gonna get, and it won't ever get that good again. We talked to your neighbors. They saw a Cadillac. Purple Cadillac. Clarence's Purple Cadillac...parked in front your trailer yesterday. Mr. Worley...have you seen your son?

...your son, the cowboy, it's claimed, came in the room blazin', and didn't stop 'til they were pretty sure everybody was dead. [...] Talkin' about a massacre. They snatched my narcotics, hightailed it outta there. Woulda got away with it, but your son, fuck-head that he is, left his driver's license in a dead guy's hand.

That's of minor importance. What is of major fucking importance is that I believe you.
„
~ To Clifford who disbelieves his claims
“
Sicilians are great liars, the best in the world. I'm Sicilian. My father was the world heavyweight champion of Sicilian liars. From growing up with him, I learned the pantomime. There are seventeen different things a guy can do when he lies to give himself away. A guy's got seventeen pantomimes. A woman's got twenty, but a guy's got seventeen, but...if you know them like you know your own face, they beat lie detectors all to hell. Now, what we got here is a little game of Show and Tell. You don't wanna show me nothin', but you're tellin' me everything. I know you know where they are, so tell me before I do some damage you won't walk away from.

You're a cantaloupe!

I haven't killed anybody since 1984. Goddamn his soul to burn for eternity in fucking Hell for making me get my hands dirty. Go over to this comedian's son's apartment, come back with something that tells me where that asshole went, so I can wipe this egg off my face and finish this fucked-up family for good.

Children, there's a red-hot poker up my ass. Problem is, I don't know who's holdin' the handle.
