I WANT TO PLAY A GAME. This month is all about horror games, and we’re kicking it off with the iconic 2004 film ‘Saw’, directed by James Wan. 🌀📼🦶🏻

We discuss games of choice, analyse how the 'Saw' franchise spawned an era of gratuitous violence in horror, talk about the uneven distribution of punishment throughout the franchise and debate whether the film has a punitive moral message.
