Inlander:
So you're assuming that everybody is going to own at least one Saw D.V.D.? That's a pretty depressing view of humanity.

StaedlerMars:
People should spend their money on something awesomer than buying the 6 saw movies..

like buying the Evil Dead movies.

That would be a much better way of spending your money.

You should then also give them to me.

analogthought:
The reason to care that they're making these crappy movies is because it sets the bar lower and lower for the horror/gore genre. I'm a huge fan of horror movies, but when movies like this come out and they make some kind of money it only perpetuates the notion that making uninspired, rehashed, over-done movies is the way to go. Ahem, Amityville remake, Texas Chainsaw Massacre remake (WITH the girl from 7th Heaven no less), and of course all the others that have followed. Not many studios or anyone else in Hollywood for that matter are really taking any chances with new material. When you look back at some of the greatest horror movies, like the Exorcist, those movies were really controversial and drew so much attention for actually showing some weight in their plots, scripts and acting. I miss horror movies of that caliber.

Oh come on. Like there's a bar? Have you ever seen Beware: Children at Play? Alien Prey? Driller Killer? Nightmares in a Damaged Brain?

And those are just the ones that aren't self-aware...
