See "Saw" Sequelize
No-win moral dilemmas are at the crux of Saw (well, that and a lot of yucky gore). By comparison, Lions Gate's decision to sequelize the horror film was a breeze.
The low-budget indie flick made a scary amount of money.
A day after Saw wrapped up its debut weekend with $18.3 million, Lions Gate and the film's producers announced plans for Saw 2.
The new movie has been penciled in for a Halloween 2005 release.
In a statement Monday, Lions Gate president Tom Oretenberg said Saw's opening weekend "exceeded all our expectations."
The movie, made for under $10 million by first-time director James Wan and cowriter-costar Leigh Wannell, placed third behind fellow horror hit The Grudge ($21.8 million) and the Ray Charles biopic Ray ($20 million).
On Halloween Sunday, no film made more money than Saw--$5.4 million, per BoxOfficeMojo.com. Its three-day, per-screen-average of $7,895 was the second highest among the weekend's top 10 movies, behind Ray's $9,989.
Word is Saw 2 talks were underway even before the weekend. Wan and Wannell are expected to be involved in the sequel, although their roles have yet to be announced.
Also to be determined: Who among Saw's stars--the surviving ones, anyway--will be back for more twisted fun and games?
Saw, a hit at last January's Sundance Film Festival, stars Danny Glover and Ken Leung as cops after a moralistic, if sadistic serial killer known as Jigsaw. Cary Elwes appears as one of Mr. Saw's do-or-die playthings.
