Well that was certainly quick


From bloody-disgusting, "Lionsgate's Saw III has officially wrapped shooting in Toronto, Canada and the Gate is prepping for its release on October 27th. Directed once again by Darren Lynn Bousman, the script was written by co-creator Leigh Whannell off of a story by his partner in crime, James Wan, director of the first Saw. Jigsaw has disappeared. With his new apprentice Amanda (Shawnee Smith), the puppet-master behind the cruel, intricate games that have terrified a community and baffled police has once again eluded capture and vanished. While city detectives scramble to locate him, Doctor Lynn Denlon (Bahar Soomekh) is unaware that she is about to become the latest pawn on his vicious chessboard. One night, after finishing a shift at her hospital, Lynn is kidnapped and taken to an abandoned warehouse where she meets Jigsaw (Tobin Bell), bedridden and on the verge of death. She is told that she must keep the madman alive for as long as it takes Jeff (Angus Macfayden), another of his victims, to complete a game of his own. Racing against the ticking clock of Jigsaw’s own heartbeat, Lynn and Jeff struggle to make it through each of their vicious tests, unaware that he has a much bigger plan for both of them."

Yeah, okay. Weird that Shawnee Smith (jaw girl from Saw numero uno) is now Jigsaw's apprentice. I know she's in the second one but I never saw it.

I'll planning a torture-movie run for this year's thon, and I'll catch up on these. I wasn't super impressed by the first one.
