Admit it, you’ve missed Jigsaw, haven’t you?

Get re-acquainted with him and the Saw franchise in the following trailer for Saw V:

Saw V is set to scare movie goes on October 24, 2008.

In the fifth installment of the franchise, Hoffman is seemingly the last person alive to carry on the Jigsaw legacy. However, when his secret is threatened, Hoffman must go on the hunt to eliminate all loose ends.

Here’s the film’s main poster:

Don’t tell Meagan Good that horror movies is the genre where career go to die. The actress has waited her whole life to star in a movie like Saw V.

“When I was a little girl, what really made me want to be an actress was seeing ‘Halloween’ parts IV and V, and the little girl that was in that,” Good said to MTV News. “I was like, ‘I want to do that in a movie!’ I’d scream really loud, in the middle of the night [to practice].”

So, what will Saw V - which is due in theaters this October - be about?

“I’m not allowed to say [anything about the plot], because they threatened to cut off my head,” the actress said. “But it should be very fun and witty to watch.”

That’s good enough for us.

Saw V director David Hackl recently spoke with MovieWeb about the next installment of this franchise. It’s due in theaters on October 24.

Who actually does the designs for these traps?
Well, the past couple of years it was me for Saw II and Saw III and Tony Ianni, who was my art director, has now taken over as production designer. It’s really a combination of people and it starts with the writers, myself and Darren (Lynn Bousman) working together to come up with the idea. We’ll do sketches of things and see what’s going to work.

These traps have so many criterias around them, so many things that they have to do. They have to look dangerous as hell but they have to be as safe as possible. They have to look like they can kill you but they can’t really kill you. It’s really difficult when you start to think of a trap.

So, how do you really do something where you run spikes through people and it goes through his wife on the other side, and make it look like it’s going to work? There are so many elements to it. It is a group effort all the way along. Jason Ehl, our trap builder, is the real engineer.

He does the machine work, actually in his workshop. He’s the mad scientist. He’s got the computerized milling machines that cut out the perfect gear sizes, the perfect blades, the pistons and the servos that make these things work.
