Just in time for Halloween, the new “Saw” movie is available to stream online.
The tenth installment in the “Saw” film franchise may have just been released in theaters, but the horror film is positioned to find a larger audience, now that it’s available to stream from home. Want to watch “Saw X?” The movie is available in 4K Ultra HD right now on Amazon Prime Video. Watch “Saw X” online as a rental for $19.99, or purchase a digital download of the film for $24.99 to add to your collection of “Saw” movies.
In fact, Amazon has a digital “Saw” boxed set available for $39.99. It includes digital downloads of the last nine movies in the series, including “Saw,” “Saw: The Final Chapter,” “Jigsaw,” “Spiral: From The Book of Saw” and more — this breaks down to about $4.40 per movie.
Additionally, just about every “Saw” movie is streaming on Hulu, Prime Video, Peacock and Starz. “Saw X” is likely to find a free streaming home on one of those platforms as well.
Directed by Kevin Greutert, “Saw X” follows John Kramer (Tobin Bell) trying to find a cure for his cancer, but only finds hucksters and con artists interested in money instead of medicine. Kramer then dawns his alter ago as the “Jigsaw Killer” to teach them a lesson about honesty through deadly traps and horrific decisions.
The cast also features Shawnee Smith, Synnøve Macody Lund, Steven Brand, Renata Vaca, Michael Beach and others.
Although it came in second place during its opening weekend (losing the top spot to “PAW Patrol: The Mighty Movie”), “Saw X” was still a big box office player throughout its theatrical run. It hauled in more than $73 million worldwide, while most film critics and general audiences were favorable to the horror movie.
In fact, Variety critic Owen Gleiberman penned in his review, “there’s more talking and less torturing; I personally approve of that ratio, though I’m not sure it will pay off at the box office. The torture set pieces in the ‘Saw’ films are lavish gifts of baroque horror presented to the audience. They are, quite simply, the reason we came.”
Available at Prime Video, you can stream “Saw X” in 4K Ultra HD for $19.99 as a rental, or $24.99 as a digital purchase.
