What a waste of my time!!!

Surprisingly incoherent and boring

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.

College art students construct a Frankenstein's monster-type of creature as part of their final exam, they each have to decorate a limb, and then tell all why it was decorated that particular fashion. Mannequin is assembled with, among other things, a camcorder eye, and a circular saw blade and shotgun for hands. The plan is to barbecue this thing after completion, but mannequin doesn't like that idea, and somehow comes to life and stalks and hunts down those who tried to toast him. The mannequin looks incredibly cheap, like something the workers in a department store tossed into the dumpster one night, and the gore scenes aren't much to get excited about either, but the acting is better than can be expected in such a low budget affair: Amy Bravo is gorgeous and can act quite well, her scenes are all highlights. Unfortunately, her character is killed off before the ending (in a death scene revealed in the trailer for the film!) Heroine Mia Zifkin is cute, too; it's too bad neither of them did anything else. It's too bad also, that the film has such a crappy, inconclusive non-ending.

Too many low budget horror films are mistakenly expected to be intellectual masterpieces of modern cinema. Sadly, many viewers are confused by this, but the truth is they are (low budget) and in many cases close to (no budgets). The directing team of Adams & Picardi are well known to work with next to nothing, and I think "Jigsaw" is what it's supposed to be: a low budget, fun horror flick. The story is goofy to begin with, a group of students embark on an art project of piecing together a mannequin. Being the troubled souls that they are, they use power tools and weapons as limbs, and would you believe it... It comes to life and terrorizes them. Nothing too thought-provoking or out of the ordinary here, it's a cheesy, fun film with some decent and dumb moments. The acting is solid, and I found it to be a fun little evening of mindless horror. If you take these films for what they are, you'll find them much more enjoyable...

OK another film bought by me and Joe Swatman. OK this isn't the worst film i've reviewed this week but it still sucked royaly. we had a lot of fun watching this piece of crap.The Monster Jigsaw is a mish mash of all these dysfunctional students ideas, u just know ur in for trouble when someone equips him with a buzzsaw and a sawed of shotgun, the film wasn't as gory as we hoped, i mean on of the deaths is a heart attack. Again i think the acting sucks, sum of the actors must be porn stars and one get into her undies for what ever reason. The absolute worst part is the ending, it leaves it open for a bit of a Jigsaw 2 but thats never gunna happen lets face it.My ratings:funny 4/100 mock (how much fun we had mocking it) 73/100 acting 8/100 generally 12/100

Arthur Simon really did a fine job on this one is all I can say. This guy is a star in the making. He was given the best death scene in the whole movie, and he MASTERED it. Also, I've watched Bleed, and it can't even touch Jigsaw. I think Jigsaw rules!
