Sawley you can't be serious?

Rating: 8/10 (17 June 2010)

You have a brief warning from the Production Company 'Twisted Pictures' then the mayhem begins. Could be the most horrifying, enjoyable or most passable excuse you have to keep constantly changing your underwear for the many scares in store. But one thing is certain: watching it alone, at night time, lights off, completely alone isn't wise.
I don't mind blood, heck I even ate spaghetti during Reservoir Dog's infamous torture scene. But when I absolutely, positively have the living daylights scared out me, you know the movie is very, very good.
Two guys in an abandoned bathroom, alone with handcuffs (No it isn't an introduction to gay pornography, this is how the film starts). They have nothing but spooky video tapes and a look to suggest having a hangover isn't fun. They don't even know how they got there, who each other are and well, much about anything else.
Then as the film progresses the story naturally starts to piece together like a jigsaw (See what I did there Saw fans?). And just when you think it's all been neatly put in place another shocker hits you square in the face - not literally I should add, maybe that's what 3D technology should do next?
The first hour-ish of the film is short on explanation which makes it all feel very unnerving and gives it a flavouring similar to David Fincher's Se7en; absolutely no complaints about that.
But Saw is as good scaring as it is, the next plot shocker, making it a must see for any horror fan or the ones who miss checking under their bed for any night terror.
