I know a lot of the younger folks dig "Saw" and there's nothing wrong with that, but I just can't get excited about a killer who doesn't actually do any of the killing himself(or herself). There's something about a dude with an axe or a machete coming at you in the woods that is much cooler and scarier to me than someone whose fate is just a game.The more advanced our society gets, the harder it is to come up with a slasher. Cell phones, internet and other technological wonders have ruined the fun of slasher films. There's something about a person picking up the receiver and finding out the phone lines have been cut that I dig well over "Oh, no I got no signal!"<!--QuoteEnd</div><!--QuoteEEndI have to agree with that 100% <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thumbsup.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":thumbsup:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"thumbsup.gif\" />
