a newer horror film that impressed me

Rating: 8/10 (30 April 2015)

i wasn't going to ever watch any of the Saw movies as i was told they were nothing but "torture porn" and how ridiculous they were. i watched them anyway and im glad i did! Saw is something very different, i am a fan of 70s and 80s horror strictly but have made exceptions for Scream and a couple select other films so i wasn't sure how id feel about this movie. it was awesome! two strangers wake up, each has an ankle chained to a pipe in this nasty bathroom with what appears to be a dead body (later to be revealed as Jigsaw/john kramer himself!) they at first don't know why they are there but as the movie goes on secrets are revealed through cassette tapes and pictures. its a bloody movie with an excellent plot and lesson for all, appreciate life and those in it and how far would you go to survive? two lessons most people don't get. the actors were all great and the sets were perfect! no complaints!
