‘Saw V’, ‘Saw VI’ and ‘Saw VII’ Finally Arrive on 4K UHD

Jigsaw’s legacy is getting a fresh upgrade, with Lionsgate releasing Saw V, Saw VI and Saw VII on 4K UHD for the first time, bringing three of the franchise’s most trap-heavy chapters together with both theatrical and extended cuts, Dolby Atmos audio and a selection of newly created bonus features.

All three titles arrived in the US on 10 November as 4K UHD + Blu-ray + Digital editions, revisiting the point in the series where Detective Mark Hoffman, played by Costas Mandylor, becomes increasingly central to the mythology surrounding John Kramer and his increasingly elaborate games.

Directed by David Hackl, Saw V picks up immediately after the events of Saw IV, with Hoffman appearing to have secured his place as Jigsaw’s successor while FBI Agent Peter Strahm begins questioning just how deeply the detective is connected to the killings. At the same time, five strangers awaken inside a new sequence of traps and are forced to confront their shared past if they hope to survive.

The release includes both the 92-minute theatrical version and 96-minute extended cut, with the latter receiving a Dolby Atmos soundtrack. New Blu-ray material includes Establishing Shot with Director David Hackl and Everybody Deserves a Chance: David Hackl on Saw V, alongside archival commentaries, trap featurettes, behind-the-scenes footage, cast and crew interviews, trailers and television spots.

Kevin Greutert takes over directing duties for Saw VI, which sees Hoffman facing increasing pressure from the FBI after Strahm’s death. Tobin Bell returns as John Kramer alongside Mandylor, Mark Rolston, Betsy Russell, Shawnee Smith and Peter Outerbridge, with Patrick Melton and Marcus Dunstan once again handling screenplay duties.

The trio concludes with Saw VII, originally released as Saw: The Final Chapter, which brings the battle over Jigsaw’s legacy towards a bloody climax. Sean Patrick Flanery stars as Bobby Dagen, a self-help guru who claims to have survived one of Jigsaw’s games, only for his concealed past to place him and those around him in danger. Cary Elwes also returns as Dr Lawrence Gordon.

Greutert again directs, with both theatrical and unrated cuts included. The 4K presentation features Dolby Vision, while the extended version carries Dolby Atmos audio. The Blu-ray also adds the new feature Will You Survive Until the End? Director Kevin Greutert on Saw VII, alongside deleted and extended scenes, the 52 Ways to Die featurette, music videos, behind-the-scenes footage and archival interviews.

Together, the three releases cover a pivotal stretch of the franchise, shifting the focus away from John Kramer’s direct involvement and towards the fallout from his philosophy, followers and succession plan.

Saw V, Saw VI and Saw VII are available now in the US on 4K UHD + Blu-ray + Digital from Lionsgate. Get your copies here: Saw 4K releases at Amazon
