The latest installment in the Saw franchise is leaving audiences so nauseated that sick bags have been provided to those who brave watching it.
The trailer for the film gives a glimpse of the intense gore that fans can expect, featuring horrifying and gruesome scenes typical of the Saw series. Some viewers have even likened the film to the infamously gory horror flick Terrifier 2, suggesting that this new Saw installment might surpass it in terms of shock value.
As the tenth film in the franchise, audiences have come to anticipate graphic and horrifying content, and this latest addition seems to be delivering just that.
Director Kevin Greutert has hinted at surprises in the film, so there’s a chance it may contain unexpected elements beyond its blood and gore.
However, in true Saw fashion, the iconic Billy the Puppet makes an appearance, cycling around on a tiny tricycle during some screenings—a creepy addition sure to unsettle viewers.
In the trailer, viewers witness a man strapped into a wheelchair performing brain surgery on himself without any pain relief, setting the stage for the film’s intense and gruesome atmosphere. Another scene shows a man with tubes strapped to his eyes, leading to speculations about acid being poured down them.
As with previous Saw films, audiences can expect an array of sadistic and cleverly devised traps. Deadline reports that Saw X explores an “untold chapter of Jigsaw’s final games,” featuring John Kramer, the original Jigsaw, traveling to Mexico in pursuit of experimental cancer treatment. When he realizes he’s been scammed, he decides to initiate another deadly game, complete with the trademark ingenious traps.
In terms of the series’ chronology, Saw X takes place between the first and second films.
Fans have already expressed their admiration for the extreme gore in the film, with one fan declaring it “better than Terrifier 2.” Another viewer praised Saw X, calling it possibly their favorite in the series and noting its raw emotional impact and high level of gore.
To emphasize the film’s intensity, theaters have handed out sick bags to attendees, with a warning printed on them: “WARNING: Saw X is a film not to be taken lightly. Vomit or cry… the choice is yours.”
If you’re up for the challenge and want to witness Saw X for yourself, it’s hitting cinemas soon, offering viewers an unforgettable and stomach-churning experience.
