‘Saw’ Sequel Launches Killer New 4K Steelbook Edition


While Saw XI is taking a bit of time to get off the ground after franchise creator James Wan got the rights back to the franchise, Jigsaw has been keeping his presence known in the horror community. Whether it be with collectibles or fresh death trap of physical media editions, Saw fans have had a lot to scream about.

Do You Want to Play a Game?

​​​​​​While the original 2004 Wan classic set the tone for Jigsaw and his deadly games, the iconic horror villain was barely in it. He was simply relegated to a third act final moment twist in the first film. That wasn’t the case with Saw II. The second film, which wasn’t originally a Saw film at all, had eight people trapped in an abandoned house. One of those ill-fated victims was Shawnee Smith’s Amanda Young from Jigsaw’s first onscreen outing. The police are on Jigsaw’s tail, but it’s revealed that the killer is dying of cancer. The police and the people trapped in the house have to play along if they want to survive.

Even though Saw II only has a 38% critic rating on Rotten Tomatoes, the film made over $147 million worldwide on a small $4 million budget. That meant the Saw franchise was here to stay and secured a yearly release until Saw 3D, aka The Final Chapter, in 2010. With the major success of <em>Saw X</em> in 2023, Jigsaw has been keeping busy in-between films with new Funko Pops, action figures from NECA, and frightening apparel collections. Saw III and Saw IV will also be getting new 4K Amazon exclusive steelbooks alongside Saw II this fall.
