    The closest I’ve ever gotten to understanding what an orgasm is like is unironically during Saw X, when they finally played the Saw theme at the end of the film (Hello Zepp). I wish I was kidding but it’s true and I’ve been too ashamed to say anything until now.

    For Friday the 13th yesterday, I went to see Saw X and it was a great movie! It takes place between the events of the first & second one, we learn more about John Kramer (Tobin Bell is incredible). I enjoyed how they balanced the plot & the gruesomeness of the movie. I’ll make a top 10 soon! 🍿

    SAW X is the best SAW movie in over 15 years. It not only delivers the best of what this franchise is capable of, it also offers a template for how moribund franchises can reboot themselves: go back to what made them work in the first place and attach emotional stakes. Had a blast with this one.

    So Saw X is actually... good? For a series that has been inconsistent since the first movie, they did something that they've never done before and made a twist that nobody saw coming: they made a good movie. Really surprised by this one...

    Saw X is a near-perfect movie, but it would've been an instant 10/10 if, in typical Saw fashion, had Jigsaw wear a backwards cap so you know that it takes place in the past.

    For those who don't watch these movies, the ninth film in the franchise, Spiral, was an EXTREMELY divisive film due to how far it deviated from what people liked about the other movies. So Saw X was kind of a return to form in many ways, particularly in its choice of director: Kevin Greutert.

  • Trace Thurman @tracedthurman.bsky.socialBluesky · Mar 18, 2025

    But hey, at least the franchise went out on a high note: SAW X is the best entry in the franchise since 6 (arguably) and 2 (definitely). And it's the only film in the franchise to get majority good reviews (that 81% on Rotten Tomatoes still shocks me).
