I think it's simply too blunt. You get told the woman is killed, okay and? What am I supposed to feel or think about it? "Oh the horror a person got killed in a horror story"? Ehhh.

The whole angle with the audience being smart enough to know the age old trick of sawing a person in half but not smart enough that this one ended off is basically calling them stupid and in a way it made me think, are there really people this dense out there?

I think this sort of story is just a little too straightforeward.
