I've got that boxset with the 3-D Billy head aswell. I was really disappointed they didn't put the Director's Cut's in, seems like a bit of a scam really. Buy the boxset with all the films but you've still gotta buy the individual releases for the complete versions Not to worry I suppose, no doubt there'll be another one along when Saw V comes out on DVD, and then another for Saw VI

They can bring out SAW XX for all I care, provided they keep as consistent as they have been. After SAW III I was convinced part IV would fail because I couldn't see where they could have taken it, but amazingly they wrote another good sequel. SAW V stands an even better chance imo, because it's a new beginning and actually this should be their best sequel because there is so much material they can use, so many places they can take it. I heard that Leigh Whannell and James Wan were gonna quit after SAW III (I think they said it in their commentary) but were talked into staying on board for the next one, I dunno if they're working on this and the next though but if they are it'll be good news indeed. I think the key to the series' success has been keeping a winning team together, it's also a breath of fresh air and two unknowns (Wan and Darren Lynn Bousman were gambled on and worked). BUT with Bousman not directing this one that's gotta be looked at as a gamble, and I hope it pays off because he was doing an excellent job.

I watched Saw III: Extreme Edition last night and really enjoyed it. I was wondering what's the main difference between the Extreme Edition and the Director's Cut? Is it just more gore in the Director's Cut?

That has the deleted scenes included in the Director's Cut. The fight scene between the two females was the biggest difference between the two cuts. They were crafty though because they made the Director's Cut a two discer with the second disc practically wasted with a pointless quiz, a lacklustre make-up featurette and text interviews etc. The good special features were used on the Extreme Edition DVD.

You ought to check out part IV reaps, the DVD is dirt cheap now (£4.99 on Play.com) so it's in your price range . I missed the last one at the cinema so I'm determined to watch the new one there. Problem is finding a babysitter to babysit for free, that's never easy.

I've kind of fallen behind with modern horror, apart from THEM and SAW IV, I'm struggling to think of one modern one I've seen since returning to England. I guess all that time without the old classics has taken me on a '70s and '80s classic horror kick.

Oh and I agree with you about SAW. In 20 years from now genre fans will be hailing it as a classic. I'm convinced of that.
