The horror franchise returns next month with an electrifying instalment, Saw X, and there may be even more scary fun to come!
As we know, The Saw film series is a popular horror franchise known for its gruesome traps, complex storytelling, and recurring antagonist, Jigsaw.
The franchise is known for its elaborate and often gruesome traps, moral dilemmas, and a complex narrative that reveals the motivations and backstory of the Jigsaw killer. The series has been praised for its creativity in designing these traps and exploring the psychological aspects of its characters.
Saw X
Saw X‘s plot is set between the events of Saw and Saw II.
However, Saw X breaks from tradition by including a post-credits scene, reports Movie Web.
Thus adding a new layer to suspense and paving the way for future films in the franchise.
Saw X offers a return to the familiar and haunting terrains of psychological horror but also lays down the foundation for an extended journey.
It seems Jigsaw has a lot more to plot!
We expect to see more films coming in the next few years.
