According to Public Health Agency of Canada, approximately 4,500 people die by suicide annually. That is a stunning average of 12 deaths every day. Though there are many reasons as to why people decide to end their life abruptly.
The Saw franchise is a horror and thriller film that revolves around the Jigsaw Killer, John Kramer. The very first Saw movie was directed by James Wan in 2004. The famous director proceeded to direct many other well-known films such as Saw III, The Conjuring series, Furious 7, Aquaman and more.
The franchise was met with a huge commercial success worldwide. The first Saw movie was notable for generating a revenue of over 103 million dollars worldwide with a mere production budget of 1.2 million dollars.
Saw, Saw II, and Saw III specifically taps into the philosophies of John Kramer, where he would trap his victims in various deadly devices to test how far they would go in order to stay alive. An additional 6 more episodes were released and for the loyal fans, Saw 10 is in production and scheduled to be released in October, 2023 by Lionsgate and Twisted Pictures. They ensure that it will include “all-new twisted, ingenious traps and a new mystery to solve”.
The takeaway of the movie is for its audiences to understand the value of life and how we can make the most out it within the limited timespan that we’re given. It is important to act sensibly, responsibly and be aware of the consequences of our actions.
“Every circumstance of every man’s life is the result of a definite cause, but mode and control are yours,” says Bruce Lee.
The Saw series franchise can be found on Amazon Prime Free, Crave, Netflix and other platforms.
