David Hackl: Saw VII Now in Pre-Production
September 14th, 2009
Even though Saw VI hasn't even graced a single screen yet, Lionsgate is pushing forward with the seventh entry into its long-running franchise entitled Saw VII 3D.
David Hackl (Saw V) will be taking back the director's seat to hopefully right a lot of the wrongs committed in the dismal fifth entry of the franchise.
According to Hackl's Facebook page:
"SAW VII 3D pre production begins TODAY!! The story is always the most important thing in my opinion. This time I want it to be a game for everyone. I want to create the effect of feeling like you are right in a trap."
Nothing else is known other than Marcus Dunstan and Patrick Melton have returned to pen the screenplay. Keep it here for more as it comes.

I love the Saw movies and all, but enough's enough. After Saw V I'm pretty much done with the whole thing. The series hasn't been good since Saw III. So much for VI being the "final" entry...

I tapped out after the second movie. Can we hope for a colective "No Mas" from audiences this time around that'll put the series out of its misery?
