SAW 10th Anniversary Celebration Is Coming!



This Halloween, Lionsgate will celebrate the 10th anniversary of the theatrical release of SAW, the film that kicked off one of the most successful Horror franchises in history, by bringing it back to theaters nationwide for one week only. The seven SAW films grossed $874 million at the box office worldwide and were hailed by the Guinness Book of World Records as the “Most Successful Horror Franchise” of all time. Below you will find the newly released trailer along with the 10 year anniversary poster.



SAW was the first collaboration for co-creators James Wan, who directed the film, and Leigh Whannell, who wrote the screenplay. Together, they also created the successful INSIDIOUS franchise, and Wan has gone on to direct such high profile films as THE CONJURING.

SAW is a psychological thriller focusing on two men who wake up in a secure lair of a serial killer, with a dead body lying between them. The killer, nicknamed “Jigsaw,” leaves them tape recorded messages with details of how to make it out alive. The only way for one man to make it out alive is to do the unthinkable. The two men desperately try to find a way out, while also trying to figure out who’s behind their kidnapping. The film, which was released over Halloween weekend on October 29, 2004, was produced by Gregg Hoffman, Oren Koules, and Mark Burg.



SAW will be in theaters Friday, October 31st, with select screenings beginning Thursday night, October 30th.
