“Live or die, make your choice.” — Jigsaw is back to hand out ultimatums to his victims. Netflix is coming in with the cult classic horror franchise Saw just in time for Halloween.
Saw franchise
Saw follows the fictional serial killer John Kramer, also known as “Jigsaw”, who tests his victims’ will to live before killing them. He does this by torturing them in physical and psychological “tests” and “games”, and if his victims survive, he deems them “rehabilitated.” Despite receiving mostly mixed to negative reviews, the Saw franchise remains one of the highest-grossing horror film franchises of all time.
