The current word out of Lions Gate, ladies and gentlemen, is that the Saw series will actually manage to hit number eight. And even better, the seventh iteration will be in 3-D.
I really don’t know what to think at this point. I really, truly don’t. After the misery that was Saw IV, I was convinced that the series was doomed to be a complete waste of time, fuelled by greed. But then I saw Saw V, and I had something like new hope for the series. There’s a strange sort of possibility mixed with sadness here–any installment could be great, or terrible, by lengths.
But considering that, if it continues on its present course, the Saw series will surpass Friday the 13th as the most prolific horror franchise known to man by the year 2015. And yes, I AM counting Freddy Vs. Jason.
Does Saw have that kind of longevity? Or will we learn, in the next couple of years, what Halloween is like without a Saw installment?
