jesus that film sets up new standards for thrillers.
the idea of these riddles, fuckin gross, the girl with the machine on head taking the key from stomach of a man, jesus. really, Seven with Brad Pitt is nothing compared to this film, everyone should see this shit to re-describe the word torment. fucking hell.

yeah, but still when you forget about this holywood shit, the idea of something like things that happened in SAW just scares the fuck out of me. just imagine something like that happening to you, for fucks sake.

see that's the problem..it is so unlikely for that to happen i have hard time imagining it :)
anyway, if you like that shit you should check out some japanese horror..there's this series of totally fucked up films, snuff sorta stuff..

thats one fucked up shit aswell i didnt even looked at the bottom of that page.
seriously, if someone likes this kinda movies, he must be sick, i know the term or "provocation", like delicatessen, but thats the border line after which everything more explicit gets just pathetic and without sense. brutality has its own levels and crossign them makes the brutality just funny and extremely unreal.

*spoilers for anyone that hasn't seen it, maybe
Yeah I loved this movie. It seems unlikely, but it's something that COULD happen and it's something that, undoubtedly, some psycho out there would like to do to people. Carte blanche to torment. It's not that farfetched at its core. I mean you'd be hardpressed to actually get away with all that and pull it off, but that's not the point.
The tortures in this film stuck with me, especially the headgear thing and And I love Cary Elwes... something a bit off about his performance, a bit campy. Loved it. And I cringed like a mofo when he sawed his foot off.

Yeah. I thought this movie was a second/third rate seven. I don't care what people say about 'Hollywood' and such. Cheese is cheese. And saw was a normal b-movie that was marketed well.
Anyway, seven wasn't really that much of a hollywood movie. It didn't follow a standard, it set it.

this movie (SAW) was absolute horse shit which is what to be expected from a first time music video to movie director.
some of the visuals were interesting but for the most part the entire premise/story is insulting.
solaris is regarded as the best non-english scifi movie ever made..and it is. there was an american re-make a few years ago which took a very different approach, the best thing about the english version is the soundtrack and though the movie doesnt suck its not comparable to the first.

autechre played the original Solaris into the challets when they curated ATP03. i was too fcuked to notice how cool it was so must rent it out..
As for SAW... i liked it well enough. Prefer 7 though as it was a real corker when it first came out. Nothing will ever beat my first view of "Blair Witch" - in the states, before the hype, for scariest film ever.
2001 wasn't scarey at all.. just creepy and atmoshperci and genious.

It was alright, not the worst movie I've seen.I don't get why people think this is a scary movie though.
As for Seven, Seven had a great story(it was great in every way) where torment was subordinate to the bigger picture of it all, whereas this flick was just looking for a flimsy excuse to film some scenes of torment and gross shit.
It's really quite easy to come up with most gruesome ways of torture and whatever gross stuff so that really doesn't cut it for me. Actually it's pretty lame if that's what's supposed to do it for a movie.
If you wanna see feet come off proper I suggest you watch Audition, which also happens to be a much better movie.

how come none of the images work at http://www.mandiapple.com/snowblood/ginipiggu.htm
or any of the other official sites for the guinea pig series?
strange. i think it's a conspiracy of some sort.
'saw' was pretty good, by the way.
