Watched this horror/thriller at the weekend, called "saw". Recommended.

It's along the same lines as 'Se7en'

I'm downloading. I think I will love it.

I think "The Machinist" is a very good movie too. It will be my next download :lol:

yea i saw the movie "saw" in the theaters and it was worth the money. the acting could have been a little better but overall it was interesting. wouldnt mind seeing it again actually, i have forgotten a lot about the movie. and yes it is very comparable to "seven."

I also liked saw but in all it felt a little like a lowbudget se7en. Gonna watch the machinist tonight. Looking forward to this movie..

didn't liked it... the new american movies are going that way, to "confuse" you so they can have a surprise ending and sometimes too dumb.
in Saw... why in all of the hours they spent... didn't see the body was breathing?? or move a finger when the bad guy pushed the button to electrocute them?
now it seems that a suspense or horror movie must have an original ending, even when all the movie sucked imo

Hmmm...should be good if you compare it with the film seven...I really enjoyed that one. The problem is my gf hates horror's... I'll have to watch it myself, which sucks big time :(

Spoiler alert!!!! :lol:

Yes, good point, but I am not having the same conversation twice (me and Mrs TransAm had the same difference of opinion) maybe I am more easily entertained - I thought it was a good film!

sorry for the spoiler!! :roll:

ok, and the fact that you're more easily entertained could be because you only sit and watch the movie and thinking is minimum... as I do when I watch tv :lol:
my tv should have a little sign: please turn off your brain after turning on the tv

I liked the movie and I am picky but the guy was on his stomach if I remember correctly and they were looking at eachother the whole time not at the dead guy so it is easy to miss his finger barely moving.
They gave us the movie at work for some promotional thing I might have to wtch it again.

definitely one of the best "horror" kinda movies in recent years or ever for that matter. the writer was very clever :twisted:

I saw the movie, and it was ok IMO, kinda stupid IMO at parts (mostly when the police find the killer for the first time, they just did everything wrong, should of killed him then or went in there with swat or somthing)

Yeah, I thought it was only okay too. The concept of the movie was amazing. When I first saw the previews I thought it was an amazingly smart movie.

After seeing it, I wished I could've say the same. I just hated the way that it ended. It was so smart but then got really dumb really quick.

But the individual cases was pretty amazing.

i enjoyed the movie, but i did piss myself laughing at the poor acting skill in the movie... it gets real bad at the end.

but i did enjoy how the ending wasen't 'happy' like most movies are.
