This one is not worthy of being called the Chainsaw Horror

Chainsaw Fright can become a classic in the classics. It is never just the bloody scenes. In addition to the choice and struggle between death and pain, what is wonderful in each movie is actually the psychological game between people. , Not only exposes naked humanity, but the most important thing is to have a soul throughout each part: the concept of jigsaw, which can be large or small, can cover most of the masses, or can be reduced to a fixed group or even an individual , Not only allows us to see the dark side that is unpredictable in ordinary days, but also makes us feel the same when we see certain scenes. It is a kind of fear that goose bumps can spread to the head. If this film is to be renamed, I am willing to admit that it is a successful horror film, "Blood, Revenge, Despair, Reversal." It has all the conditions that an ordinary horror film has. But this is Chainsaw Terror 9. Not only does it have nothing to do with the first eight plots, the protagonist has changed from a jigsaw to a pighead (if this pighead is a doctor, maybe it's the past), he also abandoned the name and was given it. In the first eight jigsaws, he never thought about revenge. For the doctor who misdiagnosed himself, he helped many times and accepted his apprentice to let him inherit his will. For the boss of the insurance company, he finally gave the right to trial to the victim. His relatives have different psychological and physical salvation to those who have made mistakes. For those who lied and get something for nothing, he taught the liar to personally bear the consequences for the lie. He did not from beginning to end. Positioning himself as an avenger, in the eyes of Jigsaw, this is the best salvation for those people. He is willing to give them the hope of "life". Everyone who survives his game thinks of Jigsaw every time. , What remains in my heart is the joy of surviving and the longing for the future. On the contrary, this "9 whirlpool", from some scenes that are probably used to make up the plot (inexplicable quarrels in the police station) to the male protagonist's brainlessness and incompetence, to the unilateral act of giving heads + slaughter. , Let my expectations of this movie drop to the extreme, and finally there is no suspenseful reversal (the targets of revenge are all police officers involved in the incident that year, and the male protagonist’s partner is an innocent person in it. The problem is obvious. ), and the reason for doing this: Revenge has become the last feather that overwhelms the camel. I have even thought that the final outcome is that the pig head exists as a doctor's hand. Maybe I can accept this setting. (The delusion can only think about it...) The greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment.
