"I want to play a game."

Saw was released to the world back in 2004. It's the Silence of the Lambs of torture porn. Silence of the Lambs came after Manhunter which was basically the same movie, just not quite as good. Saw came after Se7en ("What's in the box!!?!"), which was also basically the same movie. Se7en was better than Manhunter, but David Fincher just wasn't able to nail that horror vibe that James Wan accomplished in Saw.

The Saw franchise has a reputation for being all blood and gore, but it didn't start out that way. It started out more like a dark crime thriller and slowly unspooled into gore and later on just outright ridiculousness. Some of the Saw movies are great, others are garbage. I just watched through the entire franchise (again) and here's how I think they stack up.
