About this movie

Jigsaw (Tobin Bell) might be dead, but his traps live on in this fifth Saw entry, which finds the series' production designer David Hackl at the helm for his debut directing gig. Costas Mandylor reprises his role as Hoffman, the detective whose involvement in the string of grisly murders turns out to be more than meets the eye. Picking up where the fourth entry left off, Hoffman is revealed to be a hidden accomplice in Jigsaw's grisly games of death, which look to be continued by the lawman. The plot bounces back and forth from the beginning of their relationship to the present, as Agent Strahm (Scott Patterson) delves farther into the case. Also in the cast are Dexter's Julie Benz and One Missed Call's Meagan Good as victims of another one of Jigsaw's lessons in morality. Saw IV scribes Patrick Melton and Marcus Dunstan return to pen the screenplay for the Twisted Pictures/Lionsgate co-production.

Ratings and reviews

Very bloody. But I love every Saw movie. Sometimes its hard to keep up with because they add new characters and kill the people you were just starting to know. Other than that, great horror movie

This one I don't care for a ton. I like Saw 4 better than this one but it'S still good. The traps are as gruesome as ever and there are some good jump scares too

I have to admit this movie kinda sucks because it's just a guy with his head stuck in a box so I don't like it as much as all thee other ones.
