That gets me to thinking, John... trying to remember... sticking to themes: the importance of thematic/symbolic threads in film... is there an actual saw that makes its appearance in each film?... and does it hold center-stage somehow?... I know it does in SAW III, with Jigsaw's operation... something to go back and track....

Yes you should. They're the equivalent of AIP pictures or the New Line Elm Street pictures - cynically churned out to make money but well enough done to be entertaining

Isn't saw just a head in a flask now? Peering over the top and spitting barbed comments at people who pass by?

Albie : :-) That is definatly what would be left of the francise now. Just the head spewing puzzles at whoever will stop in the street and have a listen. Maybe someone leaves a message recording on a tape recorder next to the head.

The final trap would be being trapped with all the saw films on DVD.

Nah. I likes 'em.

I also love the Saw films but I managed to miss number IV at the cinema. Ah well, there's always DVD
