Now that the Saw franchise is back in the hands of original co-creator James Wan, the horror master has plans to take it back to its heyday.
"For me to finally come back to it, I feel I have probably the freshest outlook. I feel I can come back to it with a new perspective, whilst knowing that with this next movie I want to hark back to the spirit of the first movie," said Wan in an interview with Letterboxd. "One of the things I really want to do with this next Saw is make it scary again. I want to make a scary Saw—not just gory, but psychologically scarring, like what Leigh and I did in the first movie."
