Montresor chooses to punish his friend Fortunato by walling him up alive because he wants to enact a slow, torturous revenge that will cause Fortunato the most suffering. Killing him quickly would not provide the same level of satisfaction and retribution. Additionally, by walling Fortunato up alive, Montresor ensures that Fortunato experiences a prolonged and terrifying death.
