AMC really blew it!
For anyone who actually has`nt seen this film, this does contain a spoiler....
Having some time off from work, I happened to see that American Movie Classics was showing The Boston Strangler early this morning. It`s been a few years since I`d last seen it, and I decided to wake up early and watch it. I seldom watch anything on AMC anymore ever since they started showing commercials. The films they air are good, but they`re so broken up by them. Well, I just could`nt believe it! It got to the end of the movie, where Tony Curtis is going through the motions of the strangling of this girl, and two minutes before the credits even roll, AMC squishes down the image, and split the screen to show commercials for upcoming movies that they will be showing!
I could`nt BELIEVE it! I thought Tony Curtis was brilliant in that last scene! AMC really blew it. Do they do this sort of thing all the time? I swear, I am never watching anything on that network ever again!
Sorry... I just had to get this off my chest, and now that I`m done, I think I`ll ejoy the rest of my day off....maybe I`ll just rent this one sometime, and enjoy it commercial free...
Beware of AMC!
