Sorry. All yer gettin is a teaser! But I saw Saw!!! Full review up Friday but the bottom line is don’t go expecting to find the new Seven. But do expect to be entertained by this doofy psycho thriller that knows better than to take itself too seriously. Those wanting some simple Halloween fun shouldn’t worry. Saw’s moral point is buried under loads of over the top moments. Reminiscent of Italian giallo it almost qualified for a “ripping” good spoof of same. The cast seems to sense it too. Cary Elwes had our entire audience laughing by the end of the film and I’m still not sure what the intent was re: laughs vs. screams. Awards? No. Plot holes? yes. Fun? Too quote famous Christian Pastor and Apologist R.C. Sproul “If you can’t see the humor in dead people eating other people I can’t help you.” A truer foundational statement was never made for the horror fan. Tune in for my review on Friday.
