SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

Really Surprised!

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

I love movies based in Boston, since I am from the Boston area I have high expectations. This looked good but wasn't. The acting was not good also many plot holes. All around disappointment. Will not be watching this again.

BOSTON STRANGLER: THE UNTOLD STORY is a true crime flick made on a tiny budget just one step up from an indie feature. It's another look at the series of brutal murders that shocked America back in the 1960s, focusing on a disturbed young man who finds himself accused of the crimes, but might well be innocent. The staging looks very cheap here, and there are a few anachronisms to boot, but I found this largely watchable, if unsurprising. The cast is unknown aside from the underrated Andrew Divoff, who's good value as the detective on the case. This is no masterpiece, but it's an acceptable time-filler regardless.

there have been a few movies about the boston strangler, but the other movies have been portrayed as albert desalvo bieng convicted of and bieng the boston strangler, even though it's widely known that he more than likely wasn't't and only admitted to bieng the strangler for notoriety, and money, this is what this movie is about and even if it isn't 100 percent accurate, its no lees accurate than the others, in fact this is probably still the most closest version to the truth so far. the movie isn't a masterpiece and at times the low budget is apparent, bur for the most part there is good acting, good script, and a good movie, not one of the best no, but for fans of true crime and serial killer movies, this is good stuff

Michael Feifer writes and directs this "untold" story revolving around the terrifying serial killings of thirteen women in Boston in the early sixties. Police thought they had once and for all captured the infamous Boston Strangler in Albert DeSalvo(David Faustino). The women were sexually assaulted and left displayed with no shame and most strangled with their own nylon stockings. DeSalvo, psychotic and proud of the notoriety was convicted and later found stabbed to death in prison. The police were never fully convinced the killings were committed by just one man. This movie wants you to think you know who really did the killings other than DeSalvo.This movie does not carry the intensity or even the interest possessed by the 1968 BOSTON STRANGLER starring Tony Curtis. And Faustino is damn sure not a Tony Curtis. His casting as DeSalvo seems so ludicrous; and at times comes off as a cocky buffoon instead of a "psycho" killer. I kept waiting for this movie to get better and it never did. Also in the cast: Andrew Divoff, Kostas Sommer, Joe Torry and Corin Nemec.
