Saw X – Film Review. Content Warning.
The "Saw" films have long carried the label of "torture porn," a genre known for its excessive and graphic depictions of violence. However, beneath the gruesome surface, they have always sought to present themselves as morality plays, emphasizing that each victim, strapped into ingenious yet horrifying electro-medieval contraptions, endures the agonies of the damned due to sins they committed in the real world. While the concept of sin is portrayed in these films in an overt and almost corny manner, it serves a purpose within the narrative.
