“Your daughter’s life is at stake and you’re doing community theater…”😂😂

The Saw franchise is like a decades-spanning soap opera just with intestines and blood.

"I'll cut it off" Alanda accidentally foreshadowing the movie lol

"These two are in the sewage system having a hobble-off." This is why you're my favorite reactor of them all.

"Forcing you to kill, in your cold shoulder tee and fishnet tights?" Absolutely SENT me 😂

"audacity out the ass. There are three wheels on that bike?!" --- im fucking crying 😭😂

There’s no bigger plot twist than alanda reacting to Saw when she stated in her Scream 4 video that she wouldn’t do it. THANK HEAVENS!

I appreciate your immediate rejection of the idea that Jigsaw is not a murderer. If you intentionally put someone in a position that causes them to die, that’s murder!

"Are you tiny .... a BICYCLE!" • had me roaring for ten minutes

I ain’t calling Jigsaw anything other than MISTER PUZZLE ever again! 🤣

Fun fact, Adam was played by Leigh Whannell, who actually wrote the movie!! He also wrote all the Insidious movies, played Specs in all of them and directed Insidious: Chapter 3:)

Alanda’s reaction to Billy The Puppet had me in tears!!! 😂🤣

Could you imagine Jigsaw's lawyer trying to defend Jigsaw's non-murder murder methodology in court 😂

Alanda, Chu, Jay, and Zzavid all uploaded on the same day…my skin is moisturized, my soul is glowing, I feel happy, I feel at peace ❤

I’ve waited YEARS for this moment 🥹🧩

the plot twist at the end gagged me good!

Baybeee if I was Adam I too would've cut that tape off at "you need to k*ll Adam." I fully would've lowered the volume and said "Oh nooo he said you gotta end your life to save your kids...sorry Mr. Princess Bride... "

People can say what they want about the Saw franchise, but the original trilogy (which were initially supposed to be it, their own compact story) are great. And this first one is a masterclass in minimalist horror. The majority of the film takes place in a single room and their budget was something like 1 and a half million dollars. The car chase scene was done in a warehouse with people shaking the cars back and forth and people running up and down the sides with flashlights. They did so much with so little!

The Saw franchise is one helluva soap opera. there is DRAMA. the twists. the turns. the gags. it's insane. and it's packaged underneath a thick layer of gore for the sake of gore.

"You need a cough drop?" I literally love you😭😭

"Mr. Puzzle" had me CRYING! XD

HOBBLE-OFF IS CRAZY 😭 💀

When I first saw that ending, I literally jumped out of my seat, and I was home at the time, and I literally yelled oh sh!t lol

Interesting facts about SAW (2004) (1) Cary Elwes filed a lawsuit against the producers and the production company because he only received a nominal salary with backend revenues. He claimed to have been promised 1% of the profit, which would be considerable since this film earned over $100 million globally. The case was finally settled out of court but, due to the disagreements, Elwes chose not to be involved with any of the sequels until Saw 3D (2010). (2) Leigh Whannell came up with the idea of giving John Kramer a brain tumor while spending time in a neurology ward for anxiety and headaches. He said that undergoing numerous tests and expecting bad news made him reflect on his own mortality. He used this experience in creating a character who had only a few years left to live. (3) Tobin Bell lay face down for all of the scenes set in the bathroom; no dummy was used. (4) The identity of the Jigsaw Killer is revealed early in the film, during a flashback. When Zep (Michael Emerson) says "He's a very interesting person," there is a diagram of the "Reverse Bear Trap" on John's hospital bedside table.

"That chain is thicker than you. And you are very dumb" had me howling

My favorite line. "I'd rather you break down and me that you hated me. At least then there'd be some passion in it." she says with zero passion.

i feel like this reaction is for me specifically

Fun fact: The guy who plays Adam, Leigh Whannell, took over directing duties from James Wan on Insidious 3! His invisible man remake is great too.

The twist in the end is what makes it one of my favorites

"can you lean down you need to be chewing on your baby's ropes" LMAO

“You’re eating pumpkins” 😂💀

Saw 2 is a legitimately good sequel. There are a few scenes that will probably make someone squeamish, but the camera doesn't linger on the injuries or draw out the scene for the sake of making you squirm. Saw 3 is where it really starts to ramp things up in terms of being hard to watch, so I'd tentatively say give Saw 2 a shot.

The puppet has a name (never actually said in the movies, but confirmed), and I want everyone who watches these to know that. It’s Billy. I am not kidding

The twist of the villain being in the bathroom the whole time is a great twist which parts 2 and 4 have hood twists too

I’m glad to finally see someone else comment on how dilapidated this entire city apparently is lol

8:19 "you need a cough drop?" I nearly spat out my water from the that

“oooou that might not be my gig”. As it becomes her gig.

Sis, I was about to go to bed 😩 I just binged all these movies recently & seeing you going through them now is giving me life! You're also serving looks as usual 🤌💕

SAW was originally written as a stand alone film so it can totally be taken as such! 😂

My depression has really been getting the best of me lately but I can always count on you to make me feel welcomed and to put a smile on my face so I want you to know how thankful and grateful I am for a human being like you in this world

Alanda girl as soon as I just saw this pop up I almost passed away I never thought that you would react to any of the Saw movies or terrifier girl you are on your way to bigger and better horror good for you much love darling ❤

i couldn’t wait for your reaction to Adam’s screams at the end. Girl SO haunting

Fun fact: the dude that plays the doctor is Carey Elwes, the same actor who played the lead in The Princess Bride.

A truly FANTASTIC horror/thriller from this same writer (Leigh Whannell) is 2020's "The Invisible Man" - starring Elizabeth Moss. I think you'd have a WILD time reacting to that one! :)

Saw II is actually very much worth checking out! I love the first 2. I enjoy the 3rd a lot too, but the first 2 are in my option essential horror viewing. After the first 3, the story just gets so convoluted, I couldn't even tell you which was which.

“Why are you like this, Mr Puzzle?! Alanda never disappoints.

“You need a cough drop ?” 😭😭😂 me anytime Jigsaw struggling

THANK YOU I HAVE BEEN CAMPAIGNING FOR U TO WATCH THIS FOR A YEAR AND I KNEW U COULD.....THIS ISNT TERRIFIER which I would NEVER recommend thank u for leaving ur comfort zone 😂😂😂

Can’t unpause before asking (so you may have answered this already in like 10 seconds lmao) WHO THE HECK GOT HER WATCHING THE SAW SERIES??? I loooove the whole franchise and am DYING to see her react to the first two especially but her soul doesn’t deserve this. 😭 Shame on y’all and me!!! Okay popcorn ready 🏃‍♀️ 💨

42:27 The quick expression change with your face was Oscar worthy acting...

Can we just acknowledge Alanda's endearing messages at the beginning of every video? I feel like regardless if I'm struggling or doing okay, I feel like I'm sitting with a friend who's checking in before we enjoy something together! Thank you, you are a ray of light. Thank you.

SO EXCITED! Honestly, I’m just like you, I absolutely HATE torture type movies. that’s honestly exactly what i thought these movies were. but honestly they were ALL the biggest surprises ever. I honestly think you’d be able to get them. they have the best, mind boggling twists and turns you’ve ever seen in any movies. Got introduced to them this year and watched all 10 within a week!

I really do just enjoy watching these movies along with you Alanda. Truly a breath of fresh air and radiance every time you upload. Thanks for sharing your light with us

It is absolutely fascinating watching a blind reaction to Saw in 2024! You're absolutely right that the films get super gross and extreme (as well as extremely confusing with the plot twists and timeline) but Tobin Bell and Shawnee Smith are highlights as characters and Bell himself puts a lot of art into the films. Saw X is half a powerful drama thanks to him.

There isn't a single thing I click on FASTER than Alanda's videos!! Missed you, girl! 💙 Happy for you and TWD, love it 🎉

Alanda coming back looking absolutely adorable 😍❤️ a queen!

Saw 1-3 are strong, good films; they're not torture-porn or gratuitous. I've followed you for a while and I think you could handle it. Saw 2 is fun; Saw 3 had a good emotional arc for the main character. Saw X was also really well done; it has the highest rating of the entire franchise on Rotten Tomatoes at 89%. AND it has nothing to do with the later films; it takes place between Saw 1 and 2. My recommendation: Saw II, Saw III, and Saw X. You'll get a well-rounded Saw experience sticking to these, story-wise. They're gory but not horrifically so. The other movies in the series are too uneven. The traps are def just for gore and the acting gets pretty bad. The thread of the main storyline also gets convoluted after 3; it's not easy or fun to try and make sense of secret envelopes, secret tapes, double-crossing, and other crap you have to remember from every other movie. You're not going to have a good time.

I waited almost as long as you to watch these movies, thinking I was going to be so scared - and I can’t handle scary all that well - but these are actually so good! The stories, the twists. So fun.

I could literally talk about this franchise all day. What I love are the mind traps Jigsaw uses to bring out the true nature's of his subjects. That and viewers immediate response to things like cheating. The "it's not my problem" mentality is one of the reasons why so many people suffer.

I am sooooooo excited you’re getting into Saw!! I just discovered your channel 6 months ago, and I love it! Thank you

I'm sure I'll catch some heat for this but this franchise is partly responsible for saving my life. I know... it sounds ridiculous. But as a survivor of stalking, assault, and SA, these films motivated me to reconsider my circumstances when i was at the end of my rope and about to throw in the flag. The world is such a cruel, and violent place, and when it AND its systems that are supposed to support and help you grow don't... and only add to your pain and suffering, it takes more than a miracle to save you from being consumed by the darkness. Buffy, X-Men, and SAW helped do that for me. Jigsaw aka John, as flawed of a character as he is, is a testament to what can happen to a person when the world repeatedly fails you and those around you. Not only that, he's also a symbol of strength, perseverance, and justice. "Those you don't appreciate life, do not deserve life." A quote that still resonates for me in this chaotic, corrupt, bigoted, and Trump-influenced time.

"I will not be watching the next one" and its such a shame because Saw II was one of my favorites 😂

Your introductions always make me feel seen and I appreciate it this video the most, when I needed it the most. Love you! Thank you for existing! ❤

I came across your videos about a couple months ago, and I’ve just about watched them all! I get my horror movie fix through your reactions. They’re hilarious, and the amount of logic you put into the movie plots are PRICELESS! Keep them coming!!

I am so very proud of you for tackling this one, it's so good. I really hope you do choose to continue. The series really is just one big procedural soap opera. The gore is a LOT but the story gets so messy and juicy, I think you'd have a lot of fun with it if you could stomach it. I would at least recommend 2 and 3, that sort of finishes up the intended trilogy. Great to see you again, it's been so long!

This was amazing. I’ve been into horror since I was a kid with original universal monster movies like Dracula, wolfman, Frankenstein. And even Monster Squad which is a horror version of the goonies. Horror is pretty much all I watch and it’s so much fun watching you react to them. My favorite KZfaq channel for sure. I would agree the first three are really intertwined and tell a good story. After, the story is still good but the kills get gruesome but there’s a story behind that as well and why that happens. Keep on being you girl in all your fabulousness. Your videos definitely make bad days not so bad. Much love!

This franchise is so wild as it’s so convoluted with the twists and turns it takes. The original was a pretty good start to this franchise with an iconic trap with the reverse bear trap, having billy the puppet, and the legend himself Jigsaw with one of the best horror twists ever since it’s very unexpected. This movie is pretty tame when it comes to the gore. The red coast with the pig mask was always so creepy.

The sequels really sell Tobin Bell as a horror legend. Dude got waterboarded at 80 years old for Saw X. Dude's a trooper

“Your objective is to kill….& ain’t.” *turns tape off* 😂 I’ve watched a few of your videos. If you did decided to do more Saw I’d binge those videos. 😂

I go to turn off the TV so I can lay me down to sleep, & MAMA ALANDA COME ON MY SCREEN TRESSES STRETCHED & WITH A LOVE-A-LY BOW FOR THE CHILDREN! Ill be up for the hour! I hope you continue the franchise, the torture is 1 aspect but it's giving storyline all the way through, it's like watching a marathon of a great crime series.

No one ever talks about how dedicated John was in this movie, so I’m glad Alanda brought it up. The man literally laid in the same spot for hours while these two tried to escape. Not moving, not making a sound. Just lying there. 😂

I always love your description boxes. They always make me laugh, just like the videos!

I personally would like to see you review Beyonce I’d love to hear your takes 😂😂

Not a fan of this franchise (hype destroys everything), but I liked this one. It's actually rather subtle and minimalist compared to what would come next.

one of the best plot twists LMAO the way i saw this in theatres and everyone gasped and yelled when he got up from the floor. please watch the sequels!

It's wonderful to see you! Adam and Dr. Gordon, I could never get bored of these two. It was such a big surprise to me that the same actor that plays Dr. Gordon is the same as Jerry, the cheerful boyfriend from Liar Liar. It's also so much fun that Adam's actor Leigh Whannell helped write most of this franchise (plus Dead Silence; Insidious 1 and 2). What a talented gentleman, along with his college mate, Mr. Wan.

So glad you finally got to watch this movie, queen! I honestly didn’t think you would do it but I was not disappointed by your reaction. I was just laughing my ass off. But yes, Jigsaw was such a troll. Dude really was sitting there playing dead the whole time. That… is the work of a mad genius. Definitely a bit sick in the head but we, the fans, find him surprisingly interesting and complex. If you decide to watch the sequels, it’s worth watching. Yes, they get pretty ridiculous over the years but it has that soap opera charm that has drawn people to it, even when they’re not hard core fans. And the music you heard at the end is known as “Hello Zepp.” It is the signature theme of the movies and always plays at the end. Charlie Clouser, who made the music is one reason why the series has lasted as long as it has. The films would not had worked without it. He used to be the keyboard player of Nine Inch Nails by the way.

Love your work, Alanda! ❤

It's always a joy to see your reactions and to see you smile! Love from Athens, GA!

Omg! Lets goo! I freaking LOVE the Saw series! So glad you’re watching it!

LMAOO this was rlly funny. truly the saw movies aren't what critics claim they are (torture porn). theyre fking hilarious at times and they're more like soap operas with their complex ass storylines

Love this Franchise so Much♥️🖤♥️

Right as I'm about to eat, you always know the right time to post 🙏🙏these movies are like one long string of craziness, gore and one of the strangest crime/detective stories I've ever seen...all with varying quality lol, they get REALLY rough after like 4 but the newest one was surprisingly good

Your intro was so adorable... 😭♥ first time subbing before I've even gotten to the movie

Just found out about my grandmother passing and seeing that you posted is bringing some much needed comfort.

the people's favorite horror girlie has done it again. I never thought we would be taking on this insane franchise, but I'm glad you are! This movie and the sequel are probably my favorites. It does go a bit off the rails if you stick with the entire series. 👀

Alanda! Your face when Billy the Puppet showed up 🤣 Thank you for making my weeks 🩷

Coming out of the movie theater to see a notification from Alanda is truly a blessing 💕✨

Saw and Saw 2 are about the same level of gore, as in, honestly not as much as the franchise's legacy would suggest. Saw 3 is when things start getting a little gross, but the movies are still varying degrees of watchable. Saw 7 is just bad. Literally just torture porn for it's own sake. And the franchise didn't recover until last year's Saw 10.

I feel like you'd be okay watching Saw 2, but I might be wrong. There's not too much more gore/body horror that's worse than this one, and has a good plot. I would definitely tell you to stop there, though. From three on the gore goes up and the story goes drastically down, haha.

This is one of my favorite movie theatre memories. Being in the cinema when that reveal happened was awesome lol

So glad you are reacting to this series

ALANDA, we love you

Youre going to like Saw 2 5 and 6 the most !

Girl, I absolutely love your channel. Thank you so much for blessing us, queeeennnn ❤❤

I’m so happy that you reacted to this Alanda! I always look forward to your reactions!! Thank you ❤😊😊

I promise you that you will have all your questions answered, please consider continuing! The storyline is so intricate it's such a slow burn

I love John Kramer. He’s twisted but he’s a good old man 😂😂😂

Yessssss such a good franchise!!!! So happy to follow you on this one for sure!!!😍😍😍

You are SO funny lollllll 💀 love your reactions and please continue the saw franchise! The ongoing plot is fun and worth it I feel
