Why it’s HorroRated

Saw V is the franchise showing its seams. The mythology is getting complicated enough to require active attention and the new traps don't match the earlier films' invention. For completionists who have made it this far the storyline pays off enough to justify the time. Others should probably stop at IV.

Synopsis

Saw V runs parallel storylines: Agent Strahm pursuing Jigsaw's legacy while a new group works through a trap sequence. The mythology is getting complicated enough to require active attention and the new traps don't match the earlier films' invention. For committed franchise viewers who have made it this far.
