Saw and Saw II Returning to Theaters Ahead of Saw X

Remember how the franchise began with the double-feature events.

Saw X is slated to land in theaters in just a few weeks, which marks the tenth entry into the grisly and gruesome series, with Alamo Drafthouse theaters across the country set to remind audiences where the franchise began with double-feature events in select locations. Fans will be able to check out both Saw and Saw II, which won't just help remind audiences about the franchise's humble origins, but also serve as a refresher for the motives of John Kramer (Tobin Bell), as Saw X is set between the events of these two movies. Saw X is slated to hit theaters on September 29th.

Saw X is described, "John Kramer (Tobin Bell) is back. The most chilling installment of the Saw franchise yet explores the untold chapter of Jigsaw's most personal game. Set between the events of Saw and Saw II, a sick and desperate John travels to Mexico for a risky and experimental medical procedure in hopes of a miracle cure for his cancer -- only to discover the entire operation is a scam to defraud the most vulnerable. Armed with a newfound purpose, John returns to his work, turning the tables on the con artists in his signature visceral way through a series of ingenious and terrifying traps."

Saw X is slated to hit theaters on September 29th.
