Close, but that one was about a vampire, not a zombie.

I won't even bring this to the next level: Brian DePalma's subtext* in Carrie.

You wouldn't exactly have to bend over backwards to read that into Carrie.

Yeah, I mean they throw tampons at her in the beginning for crying out loud.

The people who make the Saw movies must be pretty self-aware (or greedy?), since despite making huge money they keep the budgets at straight-to-DVD levels and have gotten stingier about hiring proven actors since the first one.

I'm pretty sure I saw a commercial for a reality show on one of the channels where the prize is a role in Saw 6.

That's true. I haven't seen any of the Saw movies but didn't the first one at least have Danny Glover and the guy from The Princess Bride in it?
The only Wire I care about is the one that recorded Pink Flag.

ive onyl seen the first one,half of the second one and dont remember one thing except that danny glover and carey ewles (the guy from "the princess bride") were in it. 

i IMDB'd the rest and apparently SAW I-III was written by the main character (IMDB: Leigh Whannell) then he dropped the ball on the fourth.  also, donnie wahlberg has some face time in the last three.

They had to eat fruit all sexy-like.
So look out for the sexy fruit eating scene in Saw VI.
