A day to Halloween…
…well I don’t really do a lot for Halloween. In fact I don’t think I’ve ever been to a proper halloween party. Maybe when I was much much younger. I don’t know, usually I just close myself off from the world and watch horror films. It’s all a bit invented though, like Christmas. Its been taken out of context, even though I like ghouls and ghost stories and that sort of thing.
Saw Culture
If you’ve never seen any of the Saws… well, they aren’t really (and by not really, I mean not at all) family friendly. Like other recent gore-fests, e.g. Hostel (2005), they are designed to make you bring up whatever you ate for lunch and possibly breakfast too. For instance, the first film gave you a man forced to saw off his own foot, the third a nice bit of brain-surgery and the last sequel the full autopsy of the recently-deceased antagonist/antihero of the entire series – John Kramer (Tobin Bell), AKA “The Jigsaw Killer”. These films aren’t, as you would imagine, everyone’s cup of tea.
