Since when has Saw been torture PORN? I've seen two of the movies, and I don't recall any porn (although there were boobs in one).

Porn probably would've made saw more fun.

(Brittish Accent) Torture Porn refers to an entertainment form that revels in torture and punishment as a means of entertainment. It differs from other forms of horror in that it has less on terror and more in gore and suffering.

I was under the impression that it was similar in concept to Hostel, like one half torture and one half porn. Must be mistaken.

On the side, god did Saw 3 freak me out. Scene with a guy getting all his limbs broken multiple times...

These movies are so unnescessary.

it's as Batzarro says. Torture Porn is the genre of horror films whose main focus is gore/whose storylines exist almost purely to facilitate said gore.

I worry about the state of the writers.

IMHO, the first Saw was pretty good, it was decent and didn't rely as heavily on the torture/gore as did the later entries. It actually used suspense instead of shock, it wasn't a masterpiece of subtlety or the horror genre but it was actually enjoyable.

Also, good riddance to bad rubbish! I assume Longano's off to lower the bar in some other industry?

"high quality theatrical based games."

Ah ha ha ha ha! I don't even care who Brash is/was. That line's an oxymoron no matter how you roll it.

Surprised there hasn't been a game of Frank Darabont's "The Mist". Finally got around to checking it out last night and couldn't help but think: "This is Silent Hill. In a convenience store. With an AWESOME ending!"

:)
