Maniac and I are working together on a new edit once again! We worked on Hannibal TV series edits, The Girl on the Train, Jigsaw: A History of Desperation, Jigsaw II: Endgame and Halloween saga. Now it’s time for another Saw fanedit…
SAW: HOUSE OF JIGSAW - a re-edited and extended version of Saw X (2023) – one of the best and most profound entries. We want to elevate and make it smarter even more. Our goals:
• Deepen the story by bringing back the most vital deleted material that expands the lore, fleshes out the characters’ arcs and challenges Jigsaw’s morality in a fresh way. The scenes included: 16: John consults with William; 41: Gabriela makes breakfast; 89: Wake up in the main test (only two scenes); 100: That’s not how we do things; 107: Parker unchained, John Wayne Gacy and 141: Cecilia escapes.
• Make Cecilia Parker less cartoonishly evil and more fleshed out, so that she’s a balanced counterpart for John’s philosophy and his hypocrisy.
• Remove a number of mistakes, cringe-worthy scenes and corny lines (especially by Cecila). Trim the excessive gore and make some traps to be more “fair” and less frustrating for the viewers. It is a version of the film that even not-gore fans can watch for the good story (it’s more thriller now than horror).
• Improve the clunky pace in the 2nd act of the movie.
I hope you will like this new version. If you have any suggestions or ideas, let us know 😉.
Stay tuned, all Saw fans. Soon available on Maniac’s fantastic blog.
