Saw X (2023)
Between the events of Saw I and II, a sick and desperate John travels to Mexico for a risky experimental medical procedure in hopes of a miracle cure for his cancer – only to discover the entire operation is a scam to defraud the most vulnerable. Armed with a newfound purpose, the infamous serial killer returns to his work, turning the tables on the con artists in his signature way.
As John, Tobin Bell was nominated for a Critics Choice Super Award this year as Best Actor in a Horror Movie.
A #1 box office hit, Saw X has an 80% critics rating on Rotten Tomatoes, where the consensus says, “Led by a franchise-best performance from Tobin Bell, Saw X reinvigorates the series with an instalment that has a surprising amount of heart to go with all the gore. Adding dimension to the franchise’s main characters while still leaving plenty of room for the gruesomely graphic horror these movies are known for, SAW X might be the best sequel in the series so far.”
