today, spiral!
and we start off with shudder showing they are keeping anything not jordan peele or sponsored by a24 alive, currently id get a subscription but I am a poor bitch and thats not my fault so sorry lads. No can do
the film opens by either saying love wins or bury your gays. we'll have to see
oh it was a flashback. i think they buried the white gay
hes got himself a new one tho. and a daughter? idk Moe: Oooo not the spiral I thought you were watching lol
the window got hit with something and now its cracked like this. v subtle NGL
I WAS WONDERING IF I WAS WATCHING THE WRONG ONE LOL
no chris rock on the cover!!!
Moe: LOL yeah there’s a more indie movie called spiral that looks like what you’ve got
damn u piratey site u bamboozled me
i might watch spiral the indie movie later but i was specifically looking for the saw one. so. lemme go find that lol
jesus. not me clicking the first movie i see. chris rock's visage is right here Moe: Tbf I did want to see that one too
Moe: Lol yeh there u go
haha yeah i'll prolly come back to it cos im curious. also ive liked the shudder produced films ive seen so far
shoulda known i was watching the wrong one cos these barb wire edgelords werent in the opening credits
this one opens with a man in a fedora. point goes to shudders spiral so far lol hes an undercover cop! why would you dress like that to try and look inconspicuous
Mono: hello fellow non-cop people :) Moe: Tbh the one time I dealt with police they got a plain clothes guy to come with me to point out someone and he was wearing a hat and sunglasses and a trench coat lmao it’s legit
Moe: He was so obviously shifty looking I was shocked even as a 13 year old
omg they were on brand. i never wouldve guessed
oh no m'fedora is in a trap now.
heyyy that isnt billy. whats goin on its like make it so u cant speak again cos u got innocent people convicted by your voice
so lets see if he succeeds
hes on a traintrack also. like if he doesnt disable his ability to speak hell get hit by a train
anyway i think he failed. spirals' lookin to be a gorefest like the other recent saws. guess we'll see.
not a fan of that shit
>movie opens with chris rock monologueing about forrest gump
allllllright
...alright i want to point out this movie exists cos chris rock is a huge saw fan.
so idk if he wrote the script but he def had a lot to do with the creation of this film.
>shitty rap music plays as they arrest this guy .. i guess spiral has its own style, or whatever
oh. huh i thought they were police.
oh he is police. oh he did undercover without authorisation
fair enough
he doesnt trust anyone on the force. im sure thats not gonna come back
screenshottin his boss cos shes def gonna be in a trap
hi zeke(chris's character) heres the man i want u to babysit
break u in eh they look like theyre about to get into a fistfight
ha will immediately takes the intern route by asking zeke how he wants his coffee
ooooh time to investigate m'fedora >more shitty rap music
stopppppp
hey zeke i just want you to know i have a baby and a wife so there's stakes if i were to be close to death. that's all
zeke goes "yeah she likes u now but ten years from now that bitch'll be angry" and this is will's response i feel like this is obvious but its pretty sad if its not. this film is from 2021. ffs.
zeke's response is "ur young what do u know. also i didnt say it to their face"
zeke. cmon.
zeke like I have nothing but my job and im bitter but im gonna pretend its a strength cos im a cop
get better zeke
YEAH YOU WOULD BE WOULDNT YOU ZEKE zeke's like if ur an incel u should become a cop
what is this narrative aaaaaaaaaa
pov: its your first day with your new partner and he traumadumps at you about his failing marriage poor will.
why do detective bureaus always look so cosy in film. i highly doubt they look this nice irl like i would like to sit in one a these. they look so comforting
oop someone sent zeke a creepy usb.
he plugs it into will's machine. u bastard
i stg if this means everyone is in on it.
issa spiral!
hi were the backup were here to show off rad traps and die ok yeh jigsaws killin detectives. so thats the story i guess
i guess zeke has a bad relationship with the entire bureau oh the dude who got killed by a train was his friend
so hes understandably upset to find out the train dude was his buddy
theyre havin this heart to heart in the toilet. what. she gives zeke the lead which is fair, but hes being an ass about it when he talks to the other detectives. then their boss gets mad theyre not listening to him
like zeke just went "some of u dont like me cos i fucked ur mom" like thats not unprofessional as hell
but uh yeah zeke's in charge of the jigsaw case now.
zeke smashed the door on william. idk what ur going for chris but i fuckin hate your character right now he's an ass.
william befriending the fam's kids in the meantime ngl movie i like the sidekick more than the mc rn
oh no these two are out on their own 
omg theyre bonding. thats dangerous
its bread.
oh no its trap time.
oop its. uh. the guy from the earlier screenshot. i forgot his name
ah yes, his name's fitch, thank you not?amanda
will's all like look i went to look into the case cos my child is a baby and he keeps cryin so im awake anyway so let me help you and zeke is all like YOUR WIFE IS OUT? WHAT A SLUT
and wills just like dude. you better not start a podcast cos your worldview is fucked
we just learned zeke's dad used to be the.. uh.. commisar?? idk. anyway zeke turned in a dirty cop and his dad was all like UGH NOW I GOTTA DO SO MUCH DAMAGE CONTROL so that explains why zeke doesnt trust the rest of the police force
ooh another usb.
weird lil pig thing is like if u dont figure it out more murder, dude is this symbolism. pig = cop
hm. is that it
I wont screenshot it but zeke was sent a package that contained fitch's fingers. oh noooo
so far this film just seems to showcase cops are violent af even to their own
dunno if that was supposed to be the message.
ugh this film series does somethin to you. like ur rooting for people to maim emselves just so they'll live
anyway fitch is dead
oh kraus is still alive. to die another day soon prolly.
theyre raiding a drug place and the mc is berating them for their methods being too difficult lol ah more corrupt cop shit
zeke is the only straight cop so far
and william. cos hes a noobie
oh noooo he cant get a hold of william D:
nooooo another creepy jigsaw box that usually holds bits of people D: pls no tell me will is ok
? its the doll
noooOOOOOOOOOO
noooooo charlie is william's baby boy :c
so a hobby shop zeke used to frequent with his dad was turned into a butcher shop because of course it was
i cant show u what zeke's lookin at in the butcher shop but let me tell u some butchering has happened and i feel the same as zeke does in this scene :c nooooo ooh they didnt show more than a detail shot! props to this movie. not a goreporn like the last saw movies, i appreciate that
zeke's dad is missin and now its like. is his dad jigsaw? i would assume not cos thats weird.
is it will even tho he's dead? i mean we got two missing people he coulda just cut a lil bit off and the body is actually zeke's dad. IDK
i kinda want it to be amanda tho idk how that'd work.
ah yes there goes the head of the department. jfc jigsaw expects her to sever her spinal cord to stop wax from falling on her face. that is a ridiculous tradeoff
he angy dont tell me its zeke... fwif im guessin and i guess thats good cos im like. interested
oh no zeke is in a trap! ooooooh its playing the jigsaw theme! hell yeah
i mean i want him to get out. but i did wonder where the iconic music was
ahhh its like a darker, slower version of it.... im a fan
i'll try to link it if i can find it
guess who just found out hes gotta cut off a limb 🎵 if you guessed zeke you are riiiiight 🎶
ooooh nvm he used the hacksaw to grab a pin on the ground and now hes free!
daddy?
oh nvm. wheres dad ooh more police corruption shit
anyway zeke tries to save that guy but he got hit by a buncha debris. but hes still alive rn
oh shit more debris incoming
so zeke's figured out that if he uses a bin in the room he can save pete (the dude up there) but my guess is that in classical saw fashion its too late for pete yeaaaahhh hes dead. at least it wasnt a gorefest. props
omg spiral staircase. SYMBOLISM!
omg its william! whodathought.
Of course will is all like we met but u forgot and our meeting traumatized me so i did this to u blehhh
Yeah weve never seen that before. will's dad was shot to cover up the crime of a cop
thats the backstory here
ooooh saw theme again. niiiiiice
dude. omg.
so he does have a tattoo that says charlie but its his dad
??????????hes all like hey lets be a team! thats why i abducted ur dad and killed half of the metro police force cos theyre corrupt alllrighty then
oh hes not saying lets work together as cops hes like bring me the corrupt ones and i'll kill em
lets see where this goes
oh no papaw is in a trap. whouldathought. tldr his dad was a corrupt cop. whodathought?????
now zeke has to choose between his dad and. uh. whatever will is supposed to represent.
its not exactly justice.
Majo: corrupt cops?? in My saw??
its more likely than you think!
tho one of them was on jiggy's side.
yknow, the worst one.
god i hated hoffman.
garbage human, garbage character
OOOOOH THE THEME IS IN FULL SWING HELL YEAH
he chose his dad. that makes sense
omg he got to will! his dad was all like nooo he'll get away but zeke is like im gonna go beat his ass just like the dude from 3. which turned out just as well as this will, im sure.
theyre opening the door to the room the dad is in and hes all like pls dont so. i think were about to lose the dad.
jfc they show a flashback of will saying "whoever did this is pulling all the strings" and they show dad is on strings and also the little pig doll. very subtle. oooooof didnt expect this to end in political commentary....
anyway this fucker gets out
THAT WAS THE LAST SHOT OF THE FILM OMG Majo: :O
the marionette strings made zeke's dad point a gun at the police btw so they killed him.
even though he was clearly strung up and they were wearing armor.
i give this movie a 5 outta 10. its.
well.
it sure exists.
fwiw i'd rate all the gorn saw movies between 3 - 4.5 so its still better than that, I guess.
found the theme! theres also zepp nine right after but thats a more straightforward version of the theme known from the og saw series.
