People from all over are super excited to watch the latest instalment in the ‘Saw’ franchise. Before you watch the film in theatres, here are a few other serial killer movies that you must watch right away.
Horror movies are one of the most enthralling genres in mainstream cinema. The 80s gave birth to some legendary horror movies that excel at jump scares and send shivers down your spine, thanks to groundbreaking scriptwriting, cinematography, and performances. With unforgettable characters and spine-chilling scenes, the ‘Saw’ universe has made a significant contribution to the world of horror, and John ‘Jigsaw’ Kramer has become synonymous with childhood nightmares.
Fast forward to 2023, and the ‘Saw’ franchise is back with its deadliest story yet. As ‘Saw X’ released today, here are a few movies you shouldn’t miss before watching ‘Saw X’:
It’s one of the most unpredictable thriller movies ever made. The audience was surprised to see Brad Pitt taking a different path in this film as David Mills, a character typically associated with action and drama. This crime thriller was among the most successful movies of 1995 and is still regarded as one of Brad Pitt and Kevin Spacey’s best performances.
‘American Psycho’ can arguably be one of the best satires Hollywood has ever seen with Christian Bale’s phenomenal performance as Patrick Bateman. The movie is weaved with black comedy and nuanced parody that has stood with time and notoriously depicted the 80’s hippie culture.
The movie is inspired by the famous book named ‘Perfume: The Story Of A Murderer’. It embraces the Mexican tonality brilliantly, and the film is much darker than presumed from the book. With spine-chilling scenes and the brilliance of cinematography, the film has a fantastic cast who have each performed brilliantly.
The sequel to the iconic movie ‘Silence Of The Lambs’ with Anthony Hopkins reprising the character of the infamous Hannibal Lecter is a continuation of the original film as it tries to retain the essence with memorable performances from the cast.
Hailed as one of the pioneers of the 80’s horror flicks, this franchise has a different fan base to all the horror film enthusiasts, with the iconic mask being so famous that there are references in many movies for the same. The movie has been popular for generations and remains one of the most iconic horror movies ever made.
