Ideological Filters and Systemic Failures: A Comparative Analysis of Serial Homicide Representation in Citizen X and the Boston Strangler Narratives The cinematic representation of serial homicide serves as a potent vehicle for exploring the intersection of individual pathology and systemic failure. Films such as Citizen X (1995), The Boston St…

Released on this date in 1964, The Strangler choked it's way onto the big screen! Victor Buono (Famous from the TV series The Wild Wild West!) stars with a weak cast & story & suspect dialogue. Based on the Boston Strangler, it's best watched with drink in hand.

The Killer Who Forgot His Brutal Acts Albert DeSalvo is widely known as the prime suspect behind the “Boston Strangler” series of murders that shook Boston in the early 1960s. Numerous women were found dead in their homes with clear signs of strangulation—sparking a wave of terror across the city. Yet DeSalvo’s own confession was riddled with contradictions, and to this day doubts remain about the extent of his involvement. Rather than being tried for the stranglings, he received a life sentence for unrelated crimes. During interrogation, he claimed to suffer from a personality disorder and experienced ‘blackouts,’ leaving him unable to remember his actions.

Two female reporters pursue the story of the Boston Strangler amidst a backdrop of misogyny and danger. The film isn’t as gripping as it should be but is still interesting. 7/10

#OTD 58 years ago justice was served as Albert DeSalvo, the "Boston Strangler" was convicted of his heinous crimes and sentenced to life imprisonment.

An absolutely underrated role in Keira Knightley's portfolio/ career. And a great film in general. Telling the true story, only this time, from the perspective of the journalists who covered much of the cases. Smart storytelling and skilful production👌🏼

Loretta and Jean make a great duo #BostonStrangler

I don't blame you Loretta, for making excuses and leaving. I would have done the same #BostonStrangler

Watched the #BostonStrangler last night. Really good film, we thought. Keira Knightley was excellent.
It sent me down a serial killer rabbit hole on Wikipedia though 😬
