Movie Review: “The Collector”

The Collector

Seen on: July 31, 2009

The players: Director: Marcus Dunstan, Writers: Patrick Melton, Marcus Dunstan, Cast: Josh Stewart, Madeline Zima, Michael Reilly Burke, Andrea Roth, Juan Fernandez

Facts of interest: Dunstan and Melton also wrote the last three "Saw" films.

The plot: A handyman breaks into ah home only to realize he's not the only intruder.

Our thoughts: Fancy yet another round of totally brainless big-screen violence lacking suspense and innovation? If so, then I suggest you check out Marcus Dunstan’s latest horror flick “The Collector,” an ultra-monotonous experience that stole 88 minutes of my life but failed to offer me any thrills or surprises.

With the release of "Saw VI" approaching fast, it's time to talk about the horror franchise's next installment, which, as you may already now, is going to happen for sure.

It's also going to happen very soon. According to Variety, Lionsgate has already greenlit the seventh installment in the series, with a production start set for January.

Returning to direct is David Hackl, who helmed "Saw V" and worked as a production designer on the second, third and fourth flick. Marcus Dunstan and Patrick Melton will also return to write the script.

The trade also said the five "Saw" films already collected more than $700 million worldwide. Sure, that's a bunch of money, but to be honest, the franchise has lost all innovation.
