Storyline
When detective Eric Matthews (Donnie Wahlberg) is called to a crime scene of a victim of Jigsaw (Tobin Bell), he finds a lead to the place where he is hidden. Once there, he realizes that Jigsaw trapped his son Daniel Matthews (Erik Knudsen) with three women and four men in a shelter, and they are inhaling a lethal nerve gas. If they do not use an antidote within two hours, they will die. Eric follows with increasing desperation the death of each member of the group in monitors, while trying to convince Jigsaw to release his son. |
Not too bad, I guess. For a horror film, there were some very horrifying parts (the syringe scene gave me hardcore willies). I'm so sick of the philosophical serial killer, though. I'm not an expert on serial killers, but I bet most of them aren't this cerebral about it. They just like killing, and they're maybe smart enough or lucky enough to get away with it for a while, but I'm sure they're not this sophisticated and scholarly about the process.
