But I think that among the first three, only the first one is called the classic.
Perhaps the success of the first film has made the film more and more commercial. I think it's not just me, all the friends who have watched this entire series, after watching the scenes of bloody flesh and blood, should be most impressed by the first scene where Doctor Lawrence cuts off his foot with a rusty iron saw. As for why, you might say it was because of the initial shock, or the amputation in the earliest classic movie poster, but is it just that simple?
In fact, it is not. In fact, in retrospect, there are not many bloody scenes in the first film. Compared with the last two films, the first film, which involves digging eyes, peeling skin and soaking in sulfuric acid, can be regarded as the last literary film, including the last film. The scene where Lawrence copied the guy sawing his legs was actually not very bloody, and I don't think the pain level would exceed that of Uncle Guan's bone scraping in Romance of the Three Kingdoms, so it's not the pile of props plasma that makes your heart twitch. It is the kind of helplessness that cannot be grasped by the ray of hope seen in the boundless despair, and the determination to sacrifice everything for one's beloved.
And what about the second and third? The use of a lot of unnecessary plasma, as well as the emergence of an endless stream of bizarre killing machines, greatly shifts the center of the film. It is undeniable that the number of people who died in these two films was several times that of the first, and the pain at the end was far beyond our imagination. The problem is that the inhuman pain that the unlucky people endured in these two films seems unnecessary. of. Of course, you can interpret it as human's survival instinct, but I think in those cases it is better to choose death directly.
There are reasons to endure pain, especially hellish pain. If it is for love, then any kind of pain is worth enduring; if it is only for personal survival...
In addition, it is a recognized fact that whether it is a film or television work or a book, after reading it, people realize that what they want to express is far better than long paragraphs of preaching. Now come back and look at the first three SAW films. In the first step, we only saw a few glimpses of the looming back of Comrade "Jigsaw", the big BOSS. All the shocks and touches came from our own perceptions; but the latter two Ministry? Comrade "Jigsaw" is definitely a good teacher of the people. He endured the pain of cancer, and he continued to educate our pigs' feet again and again. What he said made us feel enlightened. Oh! It turns out that his purpose in designing these killing games is so noble... It is up to you to decide which one is
better and which one is worse.
I have said a lot, but in general, as long as you can read these three SAWs with the calmness and sobriety of Dr. Lawrence, you will definitely come to the same conclusion as me. When you just vomit for the props of the limbs and the realistic artificial plasma in the film, marvel at the design of those weird and cold killing devices, put yourself in the shoes of those people and feel the pain of those people, and finally think that this film is all classic because of these , you are completely in the director's plan.
Because then all you get is stomach acid and a few nights of insomnia.
Go back and watch SAW1 again and think about what I said. Only 1 is a real chainsaw horror.
