Saw IV
Ok, so Jigsaw is actually dead for real, they start with an autopsy just to prove there’s no retcons up their sleeve. Is that motherfucking male frontal nudity I see? In my mainstream horror?
Alas, even from the grave Thomas Edison can fuck up the world. Maybe he has some hardware store that sells tape recorders. It’s truly preposterous the amount, it’s Bioshock levels.
There’s an initial tug of war between a blind and a mute burly dudes, unrelated to the rest of the plot.
Copaganda in a fucking gorefest, why is there product placement for a military contractor iRobot, the Roomba dudes.
We have reached the point where major roles are relegated to random Canadian actors, this is another hallmark of the cash grab. The FBI dude is like an angry Temu Jonathan Hyde, while his partner is Scully.
The end feels like a clip show, and since they keep going overboard on killing main characters, the only guy left is one of the cops. So he’s the new Jigsaw, I guess, by a process of elimination (of budget for salaries).
This is my place for ramblings about sequences of images that exploit the human visual limitation know as persistence of vision.
