The ending?

What the hell actually happens? They get arrested. The real killer is in the phone booth. He opens his eyes. She screams NOOOOO!. The camera pans into her mouth and the credits roll. WTF? Awful movie.

I just watched it on Instant Netflix. I believe the killer got up. Next, he probably finished his killing spree. With them handcuffed, they stood no chance. Or, maybe I'm reading too much into it. She could be yelling because he framed them and they had no proof he was lying.

The ending was quite odd, in fact the entire pacing of the movie was off. Strange, sort of liked it.

The killer died. His last words were used to accuse the girl and her boyfriend of the murders. The girl screams because she realizes how bad it looks for her. I mean, the cops show up to see her and her boyfriend covered in blood with the manager hacked up and dying in a knocked over phone booth, and then to top it off they get a testimony from a dying man.

I wonder what people thought of the ending when it first came out. I personally thought it was great.

Well, any freshman forensic investigator could figure out of the truth based on [rints on the murder weapons/machines, so I doubt it will stick.
