I'm a big fan of the series, but part of me just thinks that they can only have so much blood and gore before it becomes old, as evident from the slightly disappoining, Saw 3. Nothing they put out after the first can touch the original, because that just had this low-budget charm to it, while the sequels have been packed with technology, and a bit too much gore.
I have admittedly, lost interest with the series, but hopefully they can find what made it work for James Wan in the first instalment. Obviously, one of the reasons that 'Saw' is so popular, is its innovative scenes of torture (or 'games') and so one thing that you can compliment the sequels on, is that the quality of those hasn't dropped, but gotten much better. I can only hope that we see more eerie scenes in this movie. I'll be watching Saw IV for sure, but part of me is setting up for another disappointment, and if it is, I can see this as the last in the series. They just don't seem to have much left in the tank, but they could pull out all the stops in this one, and hopefully they will, because I want to see an interesting Saw again.
4 months away? That's come quickly. Hell, I'll be 15 by that time, so I can go into the theatre without an adult this time. I'll probably see this one with some friends, because that can make a shit movie a good one. Interesting though that they are keeping a lot of things secret, and I look forward to seeing just what it's about, because the only thing I can recall was that 'cliffhanger' ending in the Saw 3 movie, that will lead to something in this one.
