AMC's 'Mobbed Up' App Transforms People Into Mobsters

Random iPhone App of the week: AMC is safely turning regular folks into mobsters with its "Mobbed Up" app, promoting the series "The Making of the Mob: New York." The app allows users to take a selfie and edit the photo using period props, filters and textures taken from the show. Once users have created their portrait, they can share it via Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. It's a great way to let friends know who the kingpin in the relationship is. "The Making of The Mob: New York" is an eight-part series that begins in 1905 and spans more than 50 years to trace the rise of Charles "Lucky" Luciano, Meyer Lansky, Benjamin "Bugsy" Siegel and other notorious gangsters.
