I like the first one. After that I’m goodI always thought the Saw series was but this looks pretty good. Seems to be focusing more on the detective side of tracking the killer as opposed to just two hours of ridiculous traps. I realize most people like that shyt but I always thought it was kinda goofy.

It was inspired by seven so you’re not wrong. Either Wan or Leigh said they watched the first cut and realized it was too light so they added more gore in reshoots. But even then it’s not as gory as the rest of the franchise. It’s one of those things I’m glad we got when we got it but I’m not a fan as a whole. Chris coming to this got me interested because it’s something new and fresh...hopefully.I was damn near a "Saw" stan....before the first movie. When I heard of the premise I was then the trailer dropped and I loved it.
Went and seen it in theaters....hated it. shyt was directed like a "NIN" video and some of the acting (mainly dude from "The Princess Bride") was atrocious.
And I thought the twist at the end was awful. I realize I'm in the extreme minority, the two guys I went to see it with liked it a lot. I think my expectations were it being more along the lines of a psychological thriller (like "Seven")....which it obviously wasn't.

Im just stupid.My main beef (aside from just not liking it....which is whatever) is the shyt turned into a fast food franchise. That kept other smaller horror movies from even dropping because studios didn't want to compete with "Saw".
Obviously Wan redeemed himself by dropping other franchises that helped revitalize the horror scene....but "Saw" fukked up a lot of stuff man.
