Rental Review: Saw III

By Ryn Gargulinski
Gory, disgusting, twisted, grotesque – excellent viewing for a quiet evening.

Some scenes, like the brain operation with a power saw or “the rack” that twists appendages until they snap, are revolting enough to make you turn your head.

Don't turn your head too far, however, for that’s what happens in “the rack.”

In case you missed the first two Saw flicks, flashback scenes fill you in so you know the logic behind the unfolding. As if there is logic behind this type of unfolding.

Highlight: The rotting hog corpses getting chopped up and dumped on a chained up judge.
Lowlight: Knowing they’re going to make a Saw IV, even though all the masterminds seem to have been killed off. Think of Jason and Friday the Thirteenth Part 912.
Rating (1-10): 13
