It’s surprising just how many people take their lives for granted. The saw series touches upon several different
subjects, adding twists, turns, and terror to the movie while stressing the
importance of embracing and cherishing your life. Throughout the
four instalments, we have seen traps set for drug users, murderers, rapists, and for drug users, murderers, rapists, and
all sorts of other abusers who are forced to either sacrifice some part of
themselves for the chance to live. This take on horror movies is oddly
refreshing, bringing an actual meaning to the brutal slaughter films that are
popular in today’s theatres.
The mindset of the infamous Jigsaw is simple to understand if you look past his drastic measures to get his point across. Being a terminally ill cancer patient, Jigsaw
values every second of his existence and loathes those lucky enough to have their whole lives ahead of them. With this thinking in mind, Jigsaw brings the audience to the horrifying realization that he will play God and give his victims the choice to
live or die if they agree to repent for their past lives. Jigsaw, although a wanted criminal, considers his actions not to be evil, and instead insists that he gives all of
his victims the choice to live or die.
All of his traps seem to form a series of twists and turns, those that both shock and scare the audience and those that wrap up the movie, yet bring forth
more questions to be answered in future instalments.
The traps that Jigsaw sets always seem to relate to the victim’s ‘problems’, giving an exaggerated form of the
actions the victim takes when doing the crime. For actions the victim takes when doing the crime. For example, in the second film, a drug user was forced to look through a pit of broken, used needles in order to
find an antidote to a poison running through his veins.
The SAW films have built up a
huge fan base, not just
from it’s gore, but from it’s meaning as
A fan review from the website rottontomatoes.com reads:“.... “choice” is presented as Jigsaw’s way of forcing people to
appreciate the value of human life. We shouldn’t take precious life for granted, and he’s out to teach us all a
lesson. It’s brilliant.”
well.
