Information
The Jigsaw Killer, also known as Jigsaw is a character from a series of horror films known as SAW.
Jigsaw usually builds deadly traps for his subjects, which are often a symbolic representation of what is seen as a flaw in the person's life. Jigsaw calls these tests "games", and tells the person the "rules" of the game usually by audio or video tape. The rules are tasks that the person must perform in order to pass the test and survive; however, the tasks often involve extreme self-mutilation. On occasion, Jigsaw has used psychological torture for the subject's test.
Jigsaw is described as a mysterious person who kidnaps people he sees as wasting their lives and attempts to "save" them by administering various inhumane tests. As opposed to other killers, Jigsaw does not actually intend to kill his subjects. The purpose of his traps is to see if the subject has the will to survive, and thus inflict enough psychological trauma for the subject to appreciate their life and save themselves from their own demons. As his victims increase, the media dub him The Jigsaw Killer-or simply, Jigsaw-because of the jigsaw puzzle-shaped piece of flesh that he cuts from an unsuccessful subject, a practice explained as reflecting the subject "was missing a vital piece of the human puzzle; the survival instinct".
List of 'traps'
Razor wire maze
Victim #1 woke up partially naked inside a fenced-in area of a basement, and was told that the only means of escape was a door that was set to lock closed in two hours. Between him and the door was a gauntlet of densely strung together barbed tape through which he was instructed to navigate to survive. According to Jigsaw, the irony of his situation was the fact that he had slit his wrists, presumably for attention, a month ago, and that if he really wanted to die, he needed simply stay where he was (as the door to freedom would close, trapping him in), but if he wanted to live, he would have to "cut himself again". The victim frantically tore through the maze, although he eventually died on the wires.
Flammable jelly
Victim #2, a man who had committed worker's comp fraud, was tested on his "illness" and placed in a dark room, with a candle and a box of matches serving as his only light source. Broken glass completely covered the floor, hundreds of numbers were written on the walls, and a safe was placed in the middle of the room. From a tape recorder resting on a small metal platform suspended from the ceiling, the victim, who had been stripped naked, was informed that he was covered with a flammable substance and that there was a slow-acting poison in his system that would kill him in roughly two hours. The combination to the safe, which held the antidote, was written on the walls amidst the myriad of other possibilities. While looking for the combination, the victim drew too close to the candle and went up in flames.
Jaw splitter
The wrists of victim #3 (KNOWN AS AMANDA YOUNG) were bound with duct tape to the armrests of a chair, and a heavy metal apparatus was hooked up into her maxilla and mandible. Jigsaw, through his puppet on the tape recording, revealed to the victim that she would have one minute to remove the contraption before it snapped open, much like "a reverse bear trap" (the term "Reverse Bear Trap", referenced in the victim's instructions, gained fame as a fan name for the trap). The mechanism would rip her jaws open in the process, killing her. To emphasize the point, a demonstration was shown to the victim, who watched as the device went off on a mannequin head. Jigsaw told her that the key needed to unlock the contraption was in the stomach of the dead man lying across the room from her.
As the tape ended, the victim wriggled her arms free from the duct tape, at which point she stood up, pulling and snapping a trigger wire that set off the one-minute timer on the back of the contraption on her head. She quickly raced over to her cell mate, whereupon she had to cut into his stomach and retrieve the key, even after discovering that he was not actually dead as suggested, but in an opiate-induced state of paralysis, unable to move or feel pain. As she was about to cut him open, he woke up. After stabbing him multiple times, the victim sifted through his stomach and retrieved the key. She then managed to remove the device just in time, throwing it onto the floor just as it snapped open.
Drill chair
Victim #4's neck was shackled into a metal brace, keeping him trapped in a chair, attached the sides of which were two power drills. The drills were designed to inch toward his head, reaching and killing him in twenty seconds. The trap was activated when Jigsaw decided to test detectives David Tapp and Steven Sing, to see whether they prioritized saving a man's life over arresting him. After ripping apart the circuitry to prevent the detectives from stopping the drills with the button that started them, Jigsaw told Sing to find the key to release the victim in a box near the chair. Inside the box were countless keys, and, rather than sift through them, Sing instead shot at both drills, deactivating them moments before they reached the victim's head.
Quadruple shotgun hallway
This trap was used by Jigsaw for security reasons instead of having a test for the victim. Four double-barrelled shotguns were suspended from a ceiling in a hallway, each connected by a tripwire strung across the hallway below. When the victim stepped across the tripwire, which was hidden among cobwebs, it would pull the triggers of the shotguns. The four shotguns would go off simultaneously, firing at the victim and shooting them down.
Bathroom trap
The setting for the majority of the first film, this test placed two victims, Victim #5 and #6in a grimy industrial bathroom. Both were shackled at the ankle to pipes at opposite corners of the room. The pipes were connected to a remote electrical source, which could conduct through the metal chains and shackles to shock the captives. In the middle of the bathroom lay Jigsaw, posing as the corpse of a previous victim, sprawled face down in a pool of poisoned blood, holding an empty pistol in one hand and an empty tape player in the other, just out of reach of #5 and #6. They found envelopes with tapes to play to learn their rules, while #6 also received a bullet. Following clues from their tapes, #5 found a garbage bag filled with photos he had taken of #6 while stalking him under hire, as well as a pair of hacksaws that were not intended to cut through the chains, but were rather meant for the victims to use to cut off their feet in order to escape. #6 was told to kill #5 in eight hours, under the threat of death for his wife and child. #5 was simply told to escape, with the only apparent means being the hacksaw, which he broke trying to cut through his chain, and a key that went down the drain of the bathtub that #5 had unknowingly drained after waking up in the water. Saw III revealed that victim #3 had tied the chain to the bathtub stopper to #5 ankle without being told to by Jigsaw.
Following more clues, #6 found a box in the wall next to him, and was then supplied with a cellphone that could only receive calls, two cigarettes, and a lighter. With the cigarettes, #6 found a note from Jigsaw informing him that he did not need a gun to kill #5, leading #6 to assume he could dip the tip of a cigarette in the poisoned blood that the corpse was lying in before giving it to #5. Not willing to kill #5, #6 attempted to fake it by dipping one of the cigarettes in the blood before swapping it with the untainted one. #5 went along with the game, pretending to die, but the act was blown when #5 was remotely electrically shocked through his chain. At 6 o'clock, #6 received a call from his wife and daughter, both of whom were being held captive. #6 became desperate as he had heard a struggle on the other end of the phone (his wife freeing herself and escaping), but the phone had hung up and he could no longer reach it. He therefore used his hacksaw to cut his foot off before grabbing the gun from the corpse and shooting #5, too late. Later it was revealed that #5 was not fatally wounded, and #6, believing his family to be safe, crawled out of the room to find help. #5, however, remained trapped. Jigsaw then stood up, turned off the lights, and slammed the door, leaving #5 locked in the bathroom. His corpse was found in the bathroom, which was part of the house of Saw II. In Saw III, it was revealed that #5 did not in fact die of blood loss from his shoulder wound after being locked away, but by suffocation. #3, against Jigsaw's orders, held a strip of plastic wrap over his head, suffocating him in a mercy kill.
Note, there are many more traps, and if needed, I will list them all
