I think this just might be the best SAW poster since the body-parts-as-numbers heyday, which ended with the third outing. For a while now the gore content in these posters has been insufficient to make an unique image, and they seemed to be searching for something else, some other element to replace it with. The [...]

Yep, Another SAW Poster
Law Abiding Faces
