Everything Actioncast: Saw (2004)
This week on the Everything Actioncast, Zach and Chris want to play a game and discuss 2004’s Saw, which just celebrated its 20th anniversary.
Kicking off a massive franchise, Saw started simple with Dr. Lawrence Gordon (Cary Elwes) and Adam (Leigh Whannell) finding themselves chained to the pipes of a dingy bathroom and realizing they are the latest victims of the Jigsaw Killer (Tobin Bell), who has been capturing people and putting them into gruesome challenges, almost none of whom survive. Danny Glover is Detective Tapp, obsessed with finding and capturing Jigsaw. Zach and Chris discuss how every building in the Saw universe is rundown and grimy, if Adam should have been placed in a more eyeball-focused trap, how the bathroom trap feels more like an escape room than the later Jigsaw traps, how weird it is every time someone calls Cary Elwes “Larry” and more.
You can watch Saw on Max. Next week, we’re heading to San Fransokyo to discuss Big Hero 6, celebrating its 10th anniversary.
