Can we go as far as to call it an adaptation?

The Big Picture The Saw movies, to put it simply, are basically just torture films. There’s little plot, and it is really just two hours of gratuitous and gorey kills — but that’s what we’re watching them for. So, to put Saw in the same sentence as Christianity is baffling, to say the least, but there are some deep roots that back it. First of all, there’s a Christian version of Saw called The Reconciler, which, yes, is as ridiculous as it sounds.

Jigsaw Believes He's Bringing Salvation to His Victims Salvation is the state of being protected from harm and/or being saved. In Jigsaw’s eyes, he is saving his victims from the path they’re on. He believes what he is doing is right and just, and Amanda’s loyalty to him after her own experience does nothing to dissuade this thought process. But on a deeper note, within religion, salvation is seen as a deliverance of the soul from sin.

Both Jigsaw and the Old Testament Deal With Obedience and Disobedience Another theme in the Old Testament is that of obedience and disobedience, which once again is a very clear value of Jigsaw’s. His traps are the epitome of obedience and disobedience. If you obey his instructions and do the horrific things he asks, then you get to live. If you don’t do the things he asks, or don’t do them in a timely manner, then you die. There’s no in-between about it.
