Saw III / USA / 2006

For all I’ve come to appreciate about the horror genre over the “30 Days” feature, I still don’t understand what is appealing about these nu-horror movies that can’t seem to think of any monsters or situations to scare us. These movies are solely gore.

There is what must have been a ten minute brain surgery scene in this movie, where the skull gets four holes with a power-drill. I could probably see something this disgusting on the Discovery Channel, but without all the gratuitous cracking and squishing noises.

Remember when movies used to be edited without a slicing noise timed up to each and every cut?
