SAW Artwork Never Fails to Amaze

As the final SAW movie is approaching and the promotional material is starting to be released, I thought I’d dedicate a blog post to my favorite horror movie posters. Ever since I saw the SAW II poster on the sides of double-decker buses I’ve loved the SAW posters. They make you stare at them, they’re controversial and have great manipulations.

I suppose it helps that I’m a huge SAW fan and I’m sorry to see the franchise end. As much as I love the original Halloween, Friday 13th and Nightmare on Elm Street movies, SAW is the horror franchise for my generation and because it’s not just some masked tough guy on a mindless killing rampage it’s refreshing. You have to use your brain whilst watching to figure out the twists, think of what could happen in the next film due to the open endings, nothing is as it seams. I have to admit, not every film has been great, SAW IV & V really did suck compared to the others, but every franchise has it’s rubbish installments. Although the original SAW was a masterpiece and has one of THE best endings ever, SAW II is my favorite, little more fast paced, more blood and gore, the Amanda story starts up and so on.

I don’t know which design studio is responsible for these posters but whoever you are, kudos to you! I have to admit, I had a dream that I’d one day be able to create the SAW XIII (lol) poster if I kept practicing my skills… I should be so lucky, but now that’ll never happen.

The SAW 3D poster doesn’t get a post because it’s a rip off of a Playstation advert from a while back. So hopefully they release the proper one sheets ASAP. I don’t think we’ll get to see posters on the side of buses this year, as they were banned last year due to boring people complaining.

We can’t forget about the Halloween Blood Drive SAW has created each year, building up those pints of blood for those in need. See! Horror movies can do good as well The blood drive posters instantly remind me of House on Haunted Hill (1999) which is another favorite horror of mine (if you forget about the terrible ending!) Below are a few of the blood drive posters.

…and the creepiest

What’s your take on the posters?
