Co-written and directed by Chuck Russell (A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors), 1988’s The Blob is a remake of Irvin Yeaworth’s 1958’s drive-in classic. And, like Philip Kaufman’s Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1978), John Carpenter’s The Thing (1982), and David Cronenberg’s The Fly (1986), it’s the rare remake that stands on its own while improving upon its source material in the process.

The movie is the sixth in the franchise, which started in 2004. An impressive amount of production, with a movie coming out once a year. The franchise in general revolves around an intelligent killer who puts those who he believes deserve it into various sadistic situations which require extreme and ultra-painful actions to escape them and the certain death that awaits you if you do not.

Saw VI brings back stars Tobin Bell and Shawnee Smith, as well as Betsy Russell, Mark Rolston, and Peter Outerbridge and is set for an October 23, 2009 release date.
