This is another interesting installment in the SAW series, which only continues to improve. Through some clever flashbacks, which thread through the previous movies, the story concentrates on Detective Mark Hoffman (Costas Mandylor) and why he's continuing Jigsaw's legacy. Close on his heels is FBI Agent Strahm (Scott Patterson), who is onto Hoffman's secret. Betsey Russell returns as Jill, Jigsaw's ex-wife, and Julie Benz (ANGEL, DEXTER) is in a very different role than she usually is. And the gore/torture effects are appropriately gruesome, particularly the pendulum scene at the beginning.
In the future, it would be interesting to see all the SAW movies re-edited so it tells the story in a linear way. It would be different but cool.
Recommended viewing for the Halloween season.
