From a production company that sounds like they make porn
comes a film with the same production value as a porn.
In the low budget hit that transformed the horror genre
into straight up torture porn.
Saw.
See Saw, a great idea for a student short film that somehow got
stretched into 6 feature length sequels,
and one super fun rollercoaster!
When two strangers wake up in your typical Taco Bell bathroom
the only way out is to patiently use the various saws,
and guns to weaken their chains until they' re able to break free.
But instead of the obvious, prepare for 100 minutes of
"I don't remember how I got here."
and dramatically reaching for stuff.
Almost...have another...idea...
Nope!
Tremble before the Jigsaw killer,
a psychopath who combines the traps of Wile E. Coyote
with the terrifying puppetry of Jeff Dunham.
"Hello, Amanda. I want to play a game."
Come, saw, and conquer the first in a long line of cheaply made gornos, featuring
the claustrophobia of being trapped in a room
because there wasn't the budget for more locations,
the panic of the fast-paced editing
because there wasn't the budget for better effects,
and the cringe-factor of watching the movie' s screenwriter try to act
"You could be the one who put me in this room!"
"The same thing happened to me, see!"
"Lawrence, calm down! There must be a way out of this!"
because there wasn't the budget for professional actors.
So settle in for the one that started it all,
full of cool, well thought out traps
that the sequels turn into complete parodies of themselves.
"You must press both buttons at once in the box before you. However, in doing so, you
will give a sacrifice of your own. Two can live, four will die --"
Ugh, what the f*** is this guy talking about?
And horrific violence happening off-screen
that the sequels turn into the star of the franchise.
Go to starring, go to starring!
Starring...
