What`s the point of watching this on AMC?

It`s cut up of course. After downloading an uncut copy I viewed 2 scenes that I had never seen before even decades ago when I first saw it on WNEW Channel 5 out of NYC.

WNEW Channel 5 out of NYC.
That's where I saw it for the first time, as well. It was either the late 70s or early 80s.
I just watched this again recently and it really is a gory movie for its time. There is no way AMC or WNEW back in the day could have televised this movie uncut. One really disgusting sequence is when the doctor digs into the hero's shin with a knife to remove some of the flesh eaters. -

Good question, I wish it was on TMC, or that AMC would get the balls to show uncut movies in late night - why don't they? It's a cable channel, and TMC doesn't cut anything shown at anytime - I've seen plenty of nudity and violence over there.
