Expectations should still be tempered with this game-changing attempt, but make your choice. Based on more “from the book of Saw” being teased, Lionsgate doesn’t seem ready to slam the door on this franchise quite yet. At the same time-because it feels different through a 2021 lens-the endgame is pretty potent (and cue Charlie Clouser's "Hello Zepp" theme). The fictional pizzeria is most likely an homage to the non-fictional restaurant called Chuck-E-Cheeses, which also features singing animatronic characters. The biggest change is getting rid of the iconic animatronic models. Ziggy North, 2 1/2, and Mojo, a four-year-old foxy, were playing in their backyard at Luddenham, watched by grandmother Lesley Gibson from the back veranda. Beyond the technical merits, the script has the desire to say something about police reform but only shallowly scrapes the bone. Cheese Entertainment, the pizza chain, is reredesigning the whole experience. A TODDLER and his dog have formed a lifelong bond after the dog saved the boy from a red-belly black snake. The film also has a bigger scope with more locations than just dingy warehouses, and without losing its grime, there are more pops of color this time between the fireworks in the opening to the red spirals the killer leaves. The voice of the copycat is less creepy than the modified voice of the already-gravely Tobin Bell, while the pig-cop marionette is cleverly interwoven into the context of the final trap.

There’s also very little tension in each lead-up to a trap: a cop goes off alone, only to be ambushed by the pig-masked killer, and it’s the one jump scare this movie has in its rusty arsenal.įor its several strengths, “Spiral” has its trade-offs. While suitably gnarly, the traps don’t really come with a maniacal “would you rather?” game where the lesser of two evils is chosen to live, missing the point of Jigsaw’s original intentions to teach a lesson. A tongue-ripping on the train tracks is a particularly brutal and rattling way to kick off the film, proving it means business at least in the splatter department. The traps themselves do all make one cringe and squirm as long as there are close-ups to blades slicing necks and fingers being ripped. Darren Lynn Bousman (who has directed “Saw II,” “Saw III, and “Saw IV”) is even back at the helm, and he returns to the jittery editing tricks when one of the games is underway to ramp up the feeling of panic and disorientation. Whether it’s beef with various rappers including Wale, Soulja Boy and Rhymefest (who roasted him to death with the SuperSonic (Chucky Cheese) diss track. It’s those morality-testing death traps invented with a twisted Rube Goldberg-level of engineer expertise, allowing the viewer to vicariously ask “what would I do?” in order to survive. For what is essentially “Saw IX” (yes, even horror fans know Roman numerals!), “Spiral” is effective enough for the reasons people keep returning.
