The next bone chilling installment of the most popular horror film franchise in history comes to DVD and Blu-ray Disc this January with the release of Saw VI. The film will be available in three different versions – an R-rated Theatrical Full Screen Edition, an Unrated Director’s cut Widescreen Edition and an Unrated Director’s cut Blu-ray Disc – and as a digital download. All three versions are a “2-Movie Set” that includes the first original SAW feature film so viewers can see “where it all began.” All three versions also contain fabulously frightening bonus materials including three featurettes that take a look at Jigsaw, the traps and an exclusive look at the Halloween Horror Nights SAW Maze plus music videos. In addition, the unrated DVD and Blu-ray Disc feature two audio commentaries with the executive producers and the screenwriters of the film.

Now will this feature the UNRATED SAW or same R rated version? I would give it a huge thumbs up if it included the Unrated cut of SAW.

Argh! Can some mod please change the title to read VI and not IV... my bad

asianxcore

Awesome!

I didn't get a chance to see the film in theaters, so I'm glad it's hitting BD so quickly.

Ugh. So the 50GB Disc will have both Saw and Saw VI on the same disc? Either toss in Saw as a separate disc or don't do it at all (and yes...sadly the rest of the Saw films were on 25GB discs but this is 2010). All of this assumes the 2 Disc set means 1 BD and 1 DVD (Digital Copy). Lionsgate very well may just toss in the DVD version of Saw on the Digital Copy disc.

Adam Tyner

No problem.

Rammsteinfan

Thank you.





Hopefully the discs for both films will be seperate.

Saw VI was actually very good for those who didnt see it. It made up for the less than stellar fifth entry. They should just let Kevin continue on VII instead of bringing Hackl back but its probably too late to do anything since its already moving forward. Maybe Hackl will have learned from his mistakes on V.... no not.

WTF? I just bought Saw on BD when part VI came out in theatres... sure it was less than $10 but still, if I had known, I could have held off!

I wish they put 5 in instead. I've been waiting for a price drop on it since it came out!

Everyone on this site knows LG is going to eventually put out numerous Saw sets anyway.

WMAangel

Weird of them to randomly include the first film....maybe Part 6 and its bonus features only took up a little over a BD-25, so instead of wasting a bunch of empty, usable space on the BD-50, they thought "hey, we'll throw the first one on there and gain (x) number of extra sales".....

Willh51

Since this film did much less business than the previous installments, I assume this is purely a marketing gimmick in attempt the to drive up sales.

I love the Saw series, so this is a day one purchase for me.

LosingMyMind

Those sets will probably be coming sooner, rather than later. Before Saw VI came out, it was announced that there would be at least two more sequels after VI. It sounds like things have changed, and VII is currently set to end the series.

Actually, what I was thinking was I'm kinda surprised they didn't release a new box set every year with that year's sequel in it. I'm kinda shocked that Lionsgate has not released a single blu-ray box set in the U.S. yet.

Saw VII was promised that it will wrap up everything story-wise with Saw IV - VI. If you've seen the ending for Saw VI, the storyline is almost finished based off the events of the last ten minutes. However, from what was also mentioned, Saw VII will also leave the door open for possible sequels.

LosingMyMind

Close. The original Mark Burg Quote:

NiCK Crush

This is a cool idea (including the original Saw)

Jediturtle

Is it too much to hope that the original Saw will be the unrated cut, not currently available on Blu?

islandclaws

I'll likely buy this, but including the original film is retarded. I don't need it included so I can "see where it all began". I know where it began, thanks.

Jediturtle

Yea...you really have to wonder who in the world is going to buy this that doesn't already own the rest of them...especially the first!

Bleddyn Williams

I would definitely say so. I would expect a copy of the existing disc that has been cheap everywhere for some time.

Maybe they're getting rid of existing stock to prepare for finally releasing the "Uncut Version" on blu. It's about time they got that done.

LosingMyMind

I don't have Saw on BD; so as long as it's not just a DVD version of the original thrown in, I'm good.

It's up for pre-order on Amazon now. $35.99, ouch.

Matthew Chmiel

It'll be safe to assume that closer to (or even on) release date, we will see it at (or around) $20.

tylergfoster

I don't have the Saw Blu. As long as the included Saw is in HD, then I'm happy.

WMAangel

Same here...I have the first one on DVD (the 2-disc Uncut SE) and have not bought the BD because:
1. It only has the R-rated version
2. It does not contain (or carry over) any bonus features
3. It does not have a lossless audio track (or even a higher resolution lossy one!)

If they're going to give it away as a freebie, then I'll take it, but I won't buy it in it's current BD state....

dablueguy

The fact that they are including it makes me think they aren't going to revisit it any time soon. Who would want to buy it when it's free in Saw 6?( besides Xage...)
