I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Truly Dreadful Film

Touches You

One of my all time favorites.

And it's a pretty scary shape. We see a hospital janitor being questioned by the police about recent occurrences. He tells the story of his kidnapping and the horrible thing he had to do in order to save his life from a demented psychopath. The fact that we know he made it out alive doesn't take away any of its horror. The location where he was kidnapped is perfect and adds a great deal of helplessness to this short film.These ten minutes were the unofficial go-ahead for the extremely successful Saw-franchise that runs to this day. Its attention to detail (the instrument on David's head, the almost playful way the kidnapper enters etc.) make this short film worth a watch and should, if possible, be seen totally in the dark and on a big screen to increase the horror element.

This film is only available on the special Uncut version of the brilliant horror thriller starring Leigh Whannell, Cary Elwes, Danny Glover and Monica Potter. Anyway, this is basically how the idea for the film Saw came along. Director James Wan and actor/writer Whannell created this short film as some sort of test. Whannell as David does what the character of Amanda would do in the full film, having a head trap that would snap her jaws open. So basically it's exactly the same as Amanda does in the full film where he cuts open a body to get a key to unlock the trap. Also starring Paul Moder as Cop, Katrina Mathers as Nurse and Dean Francis as Body. No where as good as the proper full film, but a good way to start the idea for one of the most gripping films I know. Worth watching!

One word popped out of my mouth when i reached the credits (after the "woaaahhh") ...."Amazing". this is one of the very few thriller movies that have actually got my heart pumping and it's guaranteed to do the same to you. Even if you've been known not to react very emotionally to movies in the past (I definitely haven't until now), you'll find yourself to be holding your head at various times and yelling at the characters at others. Unlike other times i watched movies, i didn't stop watching this one when the credits appeared, partially because of the song (Bite the hand that bleeds by Fear Factory) which fits one of my favorite genres of music (industrial metal), but most importantly i personally thought that the makers of the movie were complete geniuses. I'm sure you've heard this in a lot of movie reviews but i sincerely and literally mean it when i say "You must watch this". Incredible movie i promise you'll enjoy it.

This is a feature on the second disc on the Uncut edition of "SAW". James Wan and Leigh Whannell wanted to have something to show the American Studios so they quickly made this. This is basically just the "Reverse Bear Trap" except Leigh Whannell is playing the roll of Amanda. I believe this is pretty good for a nine minute short which later lead to the release of the actual movie "SAW". The interrogation scene in this short I believe is much better than the interrogation scene that make it to the final cut. In this you actually get to see how jigsaw captured David (Leigh Whannell). As you can see I am running out of things to say about this so I will just finish with this: This is a great extra on the second DVD of the Uncut version of SAW.
