‘Saw 3D’ Gets DVD/Blu-ray/VOD Date as ‘Saw: The Final Chapter’
Game over. The final chapter of the most popular horror franchise in history comes home as Lionsgate releases the film in a variety of formats for the home viewing audience. For home video purposes, the newly titled Saw: The Final Chapter will be available on Blu-ray Combo Pack (two discs including Blu-ray and DVD – as well as code to download a Digital Copy on iTunes). The film will also be available as a 3D Blu-ray Combo Pack, DVD, Digital Download and On Demand January 25th. Info and art inside.
Fans see the game come full circle with SAW veteran Kevin Greutert (Director, SAW VI; Editor, SAW I-V) at the helm of the bloodiest and deadliest film yet. Cary Elwes (The Princess Bride, SAW) returns as Dr. Gordon, and joins the cast of Tobin Bell (the SAW series), Costas Mandylor (Sinners & Saints), Betsy Russell (Chain Letter) and Sean Patrick Flanery (The Boondock Saints). Both the Blu-ray Combo Packs and DVD allow audiences inside the film series with director and producer commentary, deleted scenes and music videos. The Blu-ray versions go further with a special featurette, “52 Ways to Die”, recounting the traps from all the SAW films and more.
In the seventh and final installment, SAW The Final Chapter leaves no question unanswered. As a deadly battle rages over Jigsaw’s (Bell) brutal legacy, a group of the killer’s survivors gather to seek the support of a self-help guru. However, fellow survivor Bobby Dagen’s (Flanery) dark secrets unleash a whole new wave of terror.
Are you ready to go back?
After a record-breaking box office run and an extended cut re-release, A24 and director Kane Parsons’ Backrooms is heading home to Digital.
Backrooms will be available to rent or buy this Tuesday, July 14.
In the film, Chiwetel Ejiofor stars in Backrooms as the owner of Cap’n Clark’s Ottoman Empire, who discovers a strange doorway in the basement of the furniture showroom. He sets out to explore the mysterious, liminal space, walking headfirst into a creepypasta nightmare.
Renate Reinsve (A Different Man) also stars in Backrooms.
Will Soodik wrote the screenplay.
I wrote in my review, “Backrooms is at once complex and sparse, but never repetitive. It might be set in 1990, but it effectively captures modern anxieties and isolation in a way that frequently makes your skin crawl. While the journey ultimately loses steam by its cryptic end, Parsons’ visual representation of the human psyche disturbs like no other.”
YouTube prodigy Kane Parsons makes his feature directorial debut based on his creepypasta-inspired video series, which debuted in 2022 and has amassed over 190 million views to date.
