Saw VI 2009

Saw VI is a 2009 American horror film directed by Kevin Greutert (in his directorial debut) and written by Patrick Melton and Marcus Dunstan. A sequel to Saw V (2008) and the sixth installment in the Saw film series, it stars Tobin Bell, Costas Mandylor, Betsy Russell, Mark Rolston, Peter Outerbridge, and Shawnee Smith. Similar to its predecessor, Saw VI maintains the focus on the posthumous effects of the Jigsaw Killer (Bell) and the progression of his successor, Detective Lieutenant Mark Hoffman (Mandylor). The plot follows insurance executive William Easton (Outerbridge), who must complete a series of deadly "games" set up by Hoffman in order to rescue his employees and family. Meanwhile, the FBI comes to suspect that Agent Peter Strahm, who was framed by Hoffman as being Jigsaw's successor, was not actually Jigsaw's accomplice and re-opens the investigation, drawing Hoffman into motion to protect his secret identity. Greutert, who had served as editor for the previous Saw films, made his directorial debut with Saw VI.
