Bleedin freaky!!!

Rating: 8/10 (14 October 2005)

I have never seen a film anything like "Saw." It is indeed a different/unique kind of film even though the concept behind the film is sick/disturbing. The film begins with two men chained in a room Adam (Whannel) and Dr Gordon (Elwes) with a dead body between them. They learn that in order to save themselves they have to kill each other. Whilst this is happening police work out the latest clues to the "jigsaw" mystery, where a killer places victims in a life or death situation to see how dedicated they are to living. It turns out the jigsaw killer is a cancer victim putting people through hell as it annoys him how "healthy" people do not appreciate their lives. I didn't expect the twist at the end, (I enjoy twists as so many film these days are predictable i.e romantic chick flicks.) I throughly enjoyed this film (even though it freaked me a out a bit) and rate it 8/10. A word of warning though this is not for the squeamish (especially with the barbed wire scene.) Eeeeeeeeeew...
