Saw II Just downloaded and watched this the other day. I kinda enjoyed the first film, because it had some interesting ideas, and was a bit twisted. The second one kills the mistique of the first film by showing you the killer throughout the whole movie. Also they go overboard with the digital manipulation of the footage. Every scene is garrishly tinted with loud colors, almost like a cross processing effect. And there's all sorts of gimicky edits where the footage is sped up real fast, quick cuts to multiple camera angles, etc... It starts to look like an MTV video than a horror movie. Also, the peep hole scene is a direct rip off of that great scene in Dario Argento's "Opera". | |

I really didn't like it either but, then again, I am not really into gory flicks anyway. It started to remind me of the path that the Final Destination flicks are taking. Shake....shake, shake, shake. |

the ending sucked. the whole premise depended on certain people doing the act that you wanted them to do at the right time.
SPOILER ALERT: Like, when the last guy goes looking for the numbers on everybody's skull--when he corners the girl and little boy--there was a 50-50 chance he was gonna kill them, so the ending would have been screwed. How can the chick be the "new" jigsaw for the sequel, if she was dumb enough to get caught in the first movie? if the whole premise of the movies is to set up people with elaborate traps, she's not gonna make a good killer if the cop had just sat there with jigsaw for 3 hours, the safe would have popped open , and he would have had his son back. (nobody heard this kid panting for air in the safe?) [Edited 3/9/06 9:45am] you look better on your facebook page than you do in person  | |

He claimed that he had never killed anyone because they supposedly had a way out but he used the detective's bad temper against him and it ultimately trapped him. Jigsaw knew it would happen that way all along, that's why he led the SWAT team to one place and the guy to another. ...And i agree, she won't make as good a killer. I mean really, a crackhead?! Shake....shake, shake, shake. |

If he cut each of them open and did that, there would be fresh wounds on the backs of their necks, didn't any of them notice their necks were sore? I agree, that lady is gonna suck as the killer, she should go back to Becker, LOL. Donnie Walbergh looked cute though, LOL. | |

They looked like tatoos. I think he just tatted them on in rainbow colors. Which is another thing... By the time all of them realized that the numbers were on the backs of their heads and put the colors in rainbow order of hue they would have been dead anyway. Just another one of his so called "ways out".
 All the Walberghs are fine as hell when they're pissed.Shake....shake, shake, shake. |

He is in Saw 3  It is not known why FuNkeNsteiN capitalizes his name as he does, though some speculate sunlight deficiency caused by the most pimpified white guy afro in Nordic history.

Anyways... I think the Saw movies are great, even though I'm normally not into that kind of movies. It is not known why FuNkeNsteiN capitalizes his name as he does, though some speculate sunlight deficiency caused by the most pimpified white guy afro in Nordic history.

It was good.
Shame on you for downloading it. News: Prince pulls his head out his ass in the last moment.
Bad News: Prince wasted too much quality time doing so. You have those internalized issues because you want to, you like to, stop. | |

Yeah that eyeball scene in the beginning was really making me nervous. They do something similar to this in Hostel, and it made me squirm in my seat LOL. | |

I liked it 
It didn't freak me out as much as the first one, but I still thought it was pretty good. | |
