I must comment on this thread. I am a horror lover and typically if it's a horror film I will give it a shot. I feel that the SAW series is just such bad film in so many ways. The dialog alone is so bland and hard to sit through. It is so predictable and tasteless. I have watched almost all of them and yes there are some great gore and torture scenes but, mostly just "bore gore".
There is nothing left to really cover in these movies and yet they still are coming out. There have been many new horror films out that are pretty good. If you want some good gore films maybe try Texas Chain Saw Massacre, House of a Thousand Corpses, Strangers, Wrong Turn, Hellraiser, Last House On the Left, and I hear that The Collector is good and it came out recently.
That is if gore is your poison. There is a abundance of super horror films out there you just got to do your homework and use your resources. Again I'm no film critic but, I know what I like and go with it....I also am up for new things and keep an open mind.
