...eight victims as stock characters, and by the end of the film, few have made any real impression. Developing a rapport with the shallow Detective Mason is no easier, ultimately hurting the audience’s appreciation for his struggle. Particularly disappointing is the intimate look at the inner workings of Jigsaw. Although Tobin Bell’s performance is the closest to respectable in the film, he ultimately fails to portray one of those “cool” villains (Hannibal Lecter, for instance) that are inherently bad, yet charismatic. Jigsaw’s explanation of his crimes...
Particularly disappointing is the intimate look at the inner workings of Jigsaw. Although Tobin Bell’s performance is the closest to respectable in the film, he ultimately fails to portray one of those “cool” villains (Hannibal Lecter, for instance) that are inherently bad, yet charismatic.

They're also about transitions, early missteps and staff problems. And as CiC is learning, sometimes life imitates politics...
...sores or even death, the infection results in freakish deformities of varying degrees. One character develops a small tail, another a second mouth at the base of his neck, and others sprout tumescent growths on the face or webbing between their digits. They seem like corporeal manifestations of their inner souls. (If you were going to develop a strange growth, what would it look like?) Every sensitive outcast's nightmare comes true as those infected become as outwardly repulsive and rejectable as they feel inside. Some simply remove themselves entirely from society, preferring to live in the woods under garbage...
