At last! A half decent horror movie

Rating: 8/10 (1 June 2005)

So many times I've gone to see a new horror movie that has just come out and been very disappointed in it. Simply because they just aren't scary or just don't really do anything for me at all. So, how glad I was when I went to see Saw. In my opinion it's the best psychological horror since Seven, yet I'm not about to compare the two.
The action twists and turns and has some amazing acting from the cast. The so called "games" that the killer puts his victims through are horrible and made me cringe in most places. It has a strong story and (just when you think it's going to follow the predicable ending path), it comes back at you with a twist worthy of the usual suspects! I love this movie, plus it also has a soundtrack composed by Danny Lohter of NIN fame and Page Hamilton of Helmet fame. Also, Fear Factory did the music video for this film as well, which can be seen on the DVD. I'm interested to see how the sequel goes.
