Saw As A G-Rated Movie Still Isn’t Completely Kid Friendly

The Corridor Crew edits the Saw franchise to make it G-rated. The Saw franchise began in 2004 with the original film, the film that put director James Wan and writer Leigh Whannell on the map. The films follow the Jigsaw killer, a man who puts his victims into intricate, painful traps that they must escape while enduring immense pain. While the Jigsaw killer died early on in the franchise, the films have stood their ground through his disciples, who have taken up his case and continue to subject people to maniacal traps.

The VFX Artists of Gang crew took on the absurd task of Saw movies to give them a family-friendly G rating. They tackled some of the franchise’s most gruesome moments, such as pulling a fishhook down someone’s throat and the infamous reverse bear trap, and started crafting the violent content of each scene. So now, instead of a hook in someone’s throat, the character wears a clown nose as they pull a string of colorful handkerchiefs from their mouths, and the inverted bear trap has been turned into a device to force kids to brush their teeth. But even if these scenes have been edited, the grim world of the movies still makes their G-rated nature questionable. View Corridor Crew’s G rating Saw above.


Corridor Digital proves how brutal and gory The Saw movies are

The Saw movies are known for their visceral violence, which many viewers can’t stand. However, the movies have a devoted fan base, eagerly awaiting the twisted traps each character faces in each new episode. Saw even helped usher in the term “torture porn,” which are films in which extreme violence plays a central role. So because the movies are so violent and gritty, it’s a tough undertaking to edit them down to anything below an R rating.

As the Corridor crew made a valiant effort, the twisted nature of the Saw movies still turned out to be a bit much as even with the changes it was said that some parental controls would be needed to explain the content in them. That’s why some members of the crew considered the edits PG-rated at best, with the content just too aggressive and bleak for younger viewers. So while Saw Passing through as a violent R-rated franchise, the Corridor Crew has proven that the films are too intense to be edited into a G-rated film.
