SAW IV

[nreggie454]

Nope.

People tell me that Saw is a blatant rip of Se7en, and if I liked the traps like the razor wire maze in Saw, then I'd LOVE that movie.

SAW rips off Se7en in the psychological standpoint where the killer performs his murders by killing people who personify one of the Seven Deadly Sins by making them do the sin until they die. Se7en is elaborate, disturbing, and a great psychological thriller. In addition, it is actually believable.

SAW took that whole concept, but got a 5th grader to write it. It's only saving grace is the traps, which weren't enough for me. SAW has twists, but ****ing stupid twists. In addition, SAW isn't believable at all. For example, in SAW 1, how could cancer boy lay motionless through the whole bull**** fiasco in the room with dudes chained together without them noticing? Some parts of that movie were so dumb, that people in the theater were laughing at it. IMO, in a good scary movie, the moviegoers get scared, they don't laugh at one of the most "pivotal" points of the movie.

SAW = Hostel to me. Pseudo disturbing, only because of the gore factor, but NO plausible storyline whatsoever. BTW that ****ing doll on the tricycle is the stupidest thing I have ever seen. Very scary
