Saw VII (2010)


We start the final chapter of our journey with a scene showing Dr. Gordon ( the man who cut his foot off in the first film ) crawling to a very hot pipe and using it to cauterize his wound in order to survive.

Directed by Kevin Greutert, written by Patrick Melton and Marcus Dunstan. Starring Cary Elwes, Sean Patrick Flanery, Betsy Russell, Costas Mandylor and Tobin Bell in his final appearance as John Kramer.

And that's when the good of this entire series comes to a complete halt and the crap starts to rain upon us for the remainder of this film!

The story was garbage, the acting was piss poor at best and the addition of several new characters meant their backgrounds get forced down your throat, all in order to have them relate to the current story or set of characters.

I know I stated that the slightly cheesy, 80's style of special effects were awesome in part 6. But they completely went overboard with it in this last part which in turn, really ruined all the death scenes.

One death that really irked me was was the triple-face stabbing machine. The fake body used for the kill looked horrendous. There was no realistic look to it at all and every time they showed the body off I could not help but shake my head and yell at the screen.

So clearly this movie is a piece of crap and should not be viewed by anybody who enjoyed ANY of the other films in the franchise. Stick with  1 to 6 and you will be happy you did.

This predictable piece of crap has the worst effects I have probably ever seen from any movie with a budget over a million bucks and for that it's getting a 2 out of 10. And the only reason it's getting that much from me is because I wanted to see what had happened to Dr. Gordon and they gave me that.
