Its annoying to see all these people complain about sequels today- as if everybody has no endurance in seeing a story play out in its entirety. People nowadays are especially dumb and mentally lazy. Wheres all the complaing about the Halloween, Jason and Freddy remakes? Let alone their sequels from the 80s and 90s and re-emergence the past decade? This series is special in that its part of the horror genre and actually has a message and a storyline of some sustenance, but in reality its really not horror or gore in nature (Law abiding Citizen is the exact same movie but its not labeled horror) its actually crime and drama with some elements of action/violence. And as far as the sequeal being put out to just make money- well, scenes throughout the Saw movies used were somtimes shot between one and three movies earlier, so there’s little inspiration for pure money making as the others that keep coming out, and all these others stupid remakes or comic book turned theater that just focus on effects and little script (Avatar is another).

Okay I love SAW I look forward to them and they are up in my favs in the horror catagory…however 9 SAW movies may be a little much. I seriously pray they end it with this 6th installment and conclude it well…I don’t wanna be left hanging this time =p I want for everything to come full circle and leave us SAW fans happy with the outcome. There is something called too much of a good thing ya know ;p

I honestly love the Saw movies and can’t wait for the 6th installment to the series.

I am wondering what Hoffman will no next.

Kahless, the Saw saga is a mess of flash backs and assistants that do Jigsaw’s work for him…

Its pretty far fetched.

@Foopher, (imo) torture porn refers to the desire to see people tortured in cinematical films, Hostel, Saw, etc.
(Last time I checked) it doesn’t refer really to nudity.
^
And yeah I’ve seen the first 4 films.
I thought the first film was a pretty good horror film but the subsequent films seemed to dwell more on gore and torture. Especally the 3rd film. The 4th film kept jumping between time lines so much that I couldn’t tell what was going on, and didn’t really care anyway.

I personally like the series except for the first film,but in a strange way,the other four films actually make it better to me.

I find it funny that people keep complaining about these movies.This is probably the only horror franchise that every single film directly ties into the other ones in some sort of way.

I’m not looking for some sort of social commentary when I watch these movies,so the gross out factor and the traps are pretty much what I expect to see,and they have more than delivered.If you can sit and watch the guy in “the wrack” from the 3rd movie and not cringe when you see it,then I just don’t think you’re human.

I’m always entertained by these movies,and that’s about all I really care about when I go to see them,or any other movie for that matter.

the traps are genius and beautiful in a sick, twisted way. it takes a certain type of genius to come up with new ways to tear people apart. (not a genius i’d like to meet but still)

torture porn? have you seen the movies? there’s boobs for like 2 seconds in the 3rd one

I like the first two. I’ve seen 3 and 4, I have no interest in seeing any more. I’ll stick to reading the wikipedia entries until something interesting happens.

I like them all personally. The fact they do come out with one every year is my favorite part. It’s now become tradition to check out the new Saw and watch all the others in a row Halloween night. Would that make me somewhat sick?? Probably so!

Man, this is the perfect example of **unneccesary** sequels out of a movie. The worst thing is that they rushed them so as to get one released every year. Although that’s impressive, I wonder if they’ll be crazy enough to make two per year in the future. Prepare for 2015, when Saw 20 gets released!!!

You should see how many copies of Saw films are inhabit the 99cent bin at my local used cd/dvd store.

When does terror become terrorism, when were talking about Saw 9 that’s when.
There must be a scandal to overlook hey its time for another Tobinladin tape to surface,,,

I’m so sick of torture porn. Those ads are vile.
