I think they should have stoped at the first one. The films, with a good message, have become Friday the 13th copy cats: gore, gore, al gore |

I agree with you that there are too many "Saw" films but I disagree with you as to where this franchise should have stopped: I believe Saw III should have wrapped up this movie series.

To tell the truth, I have not seen the other three films. I tried to watch number two, but I did not get into it. |

The third "Saw" film has, IMO, the most brutal deaths, which is saying a lot because I have all four films in this series. While all have intense death sequences the third installment includes one absolutely stomach churning scene involving one of Jigsaw's victims.

I have Saw, Saw II and Saw III on standard DVD. I have Saw IV on Blu-Ray DVD. I like the first three "Saw" films. I found the fourth film to be far less to my liking. It just seemed redundant. |

I found Saw III to be significantly better than IV, but it was also far better than the second film in my opinion. The second film was a big slide downwards from the 1st, but I felt the series redeemed itself with the third entry. I'm excited to see the 5th film but probably won't until it releases on DVD. |

The general consensus from most people I talk to around work is that they are tired of seeing a Saw movie every Halloween. While personally I understand the feeling of the franchise being stretched too much, I must admit I'm still pleased to see the series going. But I don't think box office ticket sales for this film are going to be what is hoped for. |

I'm with you Pack, Saw III was an awesome movie and was a great way to end the series. If anything Saw IV should have been a nice bonus disc when the Saw III disc came out (due to the story of Saw IV)....all that said I'm interested in Saw V to know what it is all about. |
 Just another reason why I'm a fan ;-) | |

The fact these "Saw" films have such modest budgets, and do well at the box office, makes me wonder just how many are going to be made.

^Well, number Six has been confirmed. There is a new tv show called "Scream Queens" in which we have women compeeting for a main role for SAW VI. The first episode was interesting. |
