Anyone else check this out yet? I've been waiting for this for months (since it was getting pimped by JoBlo.Com), and watched it today, and I can say that it was well worth the wait.

A sweet premise followed by some nice twists and turns and an ending that DOESN'T SUCK = a ****1/2 out of 5 KoC rating. Excellent addition to the genre.

I saw this 2 weeks ago at the Austin Film Festival and thought it was terrible. Bad acting and writing. Cary Elwes using a ridiculous American accent, and the movie totally fell apart in the third act. People in this movie didn't die...their heads just spin around really fast.

I'm Renegade Raine and I approve this message:


I LOVED this movie. I'd even say that it's my second favorite movie of the year.

But then, I REALLY get into twisted and gory stuff. I still list Battle Royale as my favorite movie ever. Not to mention Manhunt is on top of my gaming wishlist (it should be cheap by now!), and I even liked Final Destination 2 for heaven's sake (even if only for the elaborate death scenes), so I think my opinion's a bit skewed on this.

But anyways, I loved all of the twisted games, and unlike Vile, I actually want to shake the screenwriter's hand for coming up with all of this twisted stuff.

The funny thing is that before the movie, they had one of those Coca-Cola sponsered things on the screen, and at one point had the quote from Secret Window where Johnny Depp's character is taking about how the ending is the most important part of the story, which I disagreed with. I even said that it was one of the least important parts of the story, but I changed my mind after seeing Saw. The ending actually made me appreciate the movie even more.

Saw isn't for everyone, but if you enjoy gory and twisted stuff, like I do, I strongly recommend it.


I just have one question after seeing the ending. Spoiler, by the way, so skip it if you want to see Saw and haven't seen it yet...





What the hell was the purpose of the cigarettes anyway? I know that Lawrence thought that if you smoked it with the poison blood on it, it would also poison Adam. But if the "dead" guy in the middle of the room was actually Jigsaw, then that can't be true. Unless, of course, he has poisoned blood in him, and it somehow doesn't effect him...

Spoiler Below: Highlight text to read
The only thing I can think of right now is that Jigsaw wanted to see if Lawrence would actually kill Adam, or that the "blood" was just some sort of poisonous mixture that had to be ingested to have any effect. The bigger question should be is how he managed to lay down for hours w/o moving or breathing.

Depending on how this does at the Box Office, I smell a sequel.

Low-budget special effects. ABSOLUTELY HORRIFIC acting. Truck-sized plot holes. A wacked-out twist near the end. No nudity.

Ehhh.

(I've seen worse ways to spend an evening, but this wasn't anything special in my book. Textbook horror-genre goofiness.)

Says you! I have no shame. I remember spanking to this AND DESERT HEARTS (The lezbo flick...) on Cinemax like two decades ago. I'll admit it. (Shit, THERE'S a mental picture no one asked for.)
