SAW Bonus disk worth it at BEST BUY?

The sticker says "Includes sneak previews for HIGH TENSION and Rob Zomnie's THE DEVIL'S REJECTS!"
So, nothing about the moive SAW itself?

Yeah, its just the two trailers, that were before the movie in the theaters. The extra disc is under the Saw one, the Saw movie disc folds out. It does have a Saw original menu screen though, for the two trailers that isn't the same as on the movie disc.

thanks for the info...I'll just wait to get this from CH cuz the bonus disc isn't really worth it.

They are not the trailers... they are 2 min clips from the film.

The Devils Rejects shows the shoot out at the Firefly house and High Tension shows the girl fighting the guy in the forest.

all in all, its not really worth it but I did get the 2 discer from Best Buy becuase now I have a place to put the Saw promo disc that I got w/ the Punisher last year. So its a better companioin to the Saw disc than this stupid disc they gave out today.

That Punisher bonus disc would have made more sense in "Saw".. is this a new trend with the bonus discs now-a-days? I hadn't planned on picking up "Saw", but my one friend may and I told him BB had a bonus disc, but I doubt he'd care about it now. (despite all the BB horror stories, the one I go to has been very good, so I try and support them)

bloodly-disgusting.com reports the following:


Unrated 'Saw' DVD with THE Short Film Coming!?
Get more on Saw | Posted 02.16.05 @ 12:38 am ]

Although promises cannot be made, I've been told by people highly involved in the DVD that the short film that James Wan and Leigh Whannell made to pitch their feature film debut Saw could be making it's way onto a special edition version of the film, which would be released later this year (maybe around the time of Saw 2?). The reason no promises can be made is because the film did not star Leigh Whannell and deals need to be made with the people involved in the short to get it released safely- without a lawsuit. But there is a longer and gorier cut out there, but to be honest it's not much different. At least it's more than the 'American Psycho' DVD, which had like .10 seconds more of Christian Bale naked to make it unrated.

I should have waited. I knew this would happen. When will I learn?

They got that info from the DVDtalk audio interview it sounds like... all that info was talked about there. Doesnt mean we will get an unedited one later on. But who knows...

I believe there's an R2 or R3 disc that has 8 more seconds. The R1 is the theatrical version. There's more info in the Saw thread either here or in the Movie Forum
