I watched the SAW movies when I was in high school, but they got really samey and lost my interest after awhile

but I do kinda miss how unhinged it is, because Jigsaw claims “ooh, I’m not a serial killer, I’m not touching you, I’m not touching you, you had every opportunity to not be chopped into salsa by my custom-made kill-collar that I made and then strapped on to you, you whizzed the opportunity right down your leg, you made your choice, I didn’t do anything, I’m not touching you”, and people start genuinely agreeing with that? both in the movie universe and out? fuckin genius comedy tbh

#saw #horror #jigsaw #john kramer #the last movie i saw (heh) was the one where he put health insurance agents on a merry-go-round rigged with a gun #at that point the traps had gotten comically elaborate and the narrative groaned as it bent backwards to justify the kidnapping and murder #i also played the first saw game on xb360 and it was surreal how you'd rescue someone from a jigsaw trap and they'd blame you for it #''it's your fault i'm here!'' hey! i'm not the one who put you under a swinging blade and rigged a bunch of gear puzzles to it!#this upset me when i was trying to genuinely enjoy the franchise but now that i'm ready to find it funny i wonder how far they take this bit
