Today LionsGate sent over an official press release for SAW III, which the UK and US on 27th of October, complete with official synopsis. In case you’ve been living under a rock for the past year, the film sees the return of Tobin Bell and Shawnee Smith as the notorious Jigsaw and his new apprentice, Amanda. But enough from me, here’s the official release, complete with links to the teaser trailer:
Opening at UK cinemas this Halloween, SAW III is the most psychologically intense and disturbing chapter in this sick and twisted trilogy. If you thought films like Hostel, The Hills Have Eyes and Wolf Creek pushed you to your limits, they’ll seem like a walk in the park compared to the gruesomely grotesque SAW III.
Jigsaw (Tobin Bell), the puppet master behind the cruel, intricate games that have terrified a community, has disappeared. With his new apprentice Amanda (Shawnee Smith) he has once again baffled the police, eluded capture and vanished. While city detectives scramble to locate him, Doctor Lynn Denlon (Bahar Soomekh) and Jeff (Angus MacFayden) are unaware that they are about to become the latest pawns on his vicious chessboard.
Lynn is kidnapped and taken to an abandoned warehouse where she meets Jigsaw, 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…
