[4.50/10] Spiral: From the Book of Saw (2021)

Spiral (2021)

Quick Review: The stylized use of lighting and color makes it flashier looking than most of the previous entries, but despite the sort-of-new direction it takes, the lack of fresh ideas, imagination, and most of all Jigsaw, turn "Spiral" into a gimmicky, contrived and badly miscast reboot with a predictably generic twist that offers more of the same without any impact, and although the few nasty traps a grisly and well-executed, the real torture is the film's tendency to over-explain everything.

Not a fan of torture porn, especially if it's not even that good.
