Gore that brings you back for more

Rating: 7/10 (23 April 2007)

I just watched this movie last night at a friends house, and i'll admit that I felt sick through the entire movie. I had never seen the first 2 Saw movies and I wasn't planning on seeing this one either, but after being talked into it I was relatively sure i'd regret it.
Now I expected a lot of gore in this movie after hearing about it from friends, but I never could have expected just how graphic it really was. The fact that it was rare for them to cut away from a body being torn apart surprised me at first, and even though you grow to expect it, I can't see how you could ever get used to it. And although the traps weren't all that bad (maybe i'm the only one, but the woman freezing didn't gross me out too badly) there were a couple that could haunt your mind for quite some time. Such as a girl having her rib cage torn apart and a man having his limbs twisted off.
Now I can't speak for hardcore Saw fans, or Saw fans at all for that matter, but even though after the movie finished I promised myself I would never watch it or anything like it again, i'm already starting to want retouch on the feeling you get while watching it. Sure it was just plain gross at times (a man being drowned by liquified rotten pigs), but there was just something about it that makes you want to come back for more.
