Saw truly is one of the smartest horror films ever made. One of the reasons why I loved this film was because it was really clever and it didnt screw up at all. It all adapted really well not only to see how scary it is but also to see the extremely psychological side to it to what some human beings on Earth are really like. It is a real teaser because the audience arent sure whether the victims are going to kill themeslves or each other. It shows real horror and a really gut wretching exciting story but unlike some of the horror films today they are just random horrors that arent really thought about properly. They are just randomly thought of but without thinking about a plot. But this unfortunately happens to Saw II, Saw III, Saw IV, Saw V and probably Saw VI. It is a film that I have been told is a really scary horror film but it is a horror film still but I would refer it more of a psychological thriller.
The acting was so crap it made me laugh but that wasnt really the point. It is more about the psychological horror that is used in this film rather than the characters involved. The acting didnt really need to be good in a film like this. This film as I said focused more on the story than the acting and directing involved which made this film a great success.
I thought that the direction was really good because there was a close point of view of living in hell and of the psychological side of things within the film. There were some awesome camera angles that havent really been used that often in a horror film before. The script was so spine chilling and gut wrenching that probably makes you feel a bit sick but makes you feel really good because of its clever storytelling and screenplay.
After seeing this one, I am going to see Saw II but not Saw III, Saw IV, Saw V or Saw VI at all because it will spoil my liking to Saw. I love films like this (psychological thrillers) because they are films that can stay in your mind for a long time and can be films that you would watch again but wouldnt want to watch again for a while like me. Saw is one of those films that a lot of teenagers would watch because of the gore, violence and the horror and that. That is where I find this film extremely overrated but for good reason though: entertainment. As far as I am concerned Saw is a masterpiece of horror films!!
