      Amen to that. I wish torture porn could be uninvented. I am indifferent to gore but it has to be in service of the story. The story shouldn’t be in service of the gore.

      Basically the reason Saw is doing the crazy shit is because he’s an old guy with cancer and his health insurance said he’s too old to get care so they’re just gonna let him die. So he starts taking it out on people that are/could be related to the reason he was denied health insurance (in the 1st one I think it’s his doctor?)

      At least that’s how I recall the story

        So he realises he has enough funds to organise a dispirit group of strangers into a kill chamber, and does that instead of using it to fund cancer treatment either in the USA or elsewhere.

        By “targeting people who take life for granted,” saw is a hypocrite!
