Detective Mark Hoffman emerges as the new face of terror in the latest installment of the Saw saga, but can anyone trust him? As Agent Strahm digs deeper into his past, he uncovers a web of deceit that threatens to destroy everything he thought he knew about the killer known as Jigsaw. The game is far from over, and the stakes are higher than ever before. Will Hoffman’s true intentions be revealed, or will the bloodshed continue?

WORTH A LOOK

While it may not hold up as a standalone horror film, Saw V’s adherence to the Saw formula and gruesome traps will likely appeal to die-hards.
