Jigsaw Hilariously Spoofs Nicole Kidman’s AMC Ad for ‘Saw X’ Promo
'Somehow, self-amputation feels good in a place like this,' Jigsaw says ahead of the movie's Sept. 29 premiere
Nearly 20 years later, Jigsaw is still making us scared to go to the movies.
In the latest promo for the long-overdue Saw X, the horror franchise's creepy mascot rolls into a movie theater with a hilarious monologue parodying Nicole Kidman's now-iconic AMC ad.
"We come to this place for a reawakening," says the computerized voice of Jigsaw star Tobin Bell in a voiceover. "We come to the theaters to scream, to beg, to play."
The marionette rides his signature red tricycle into the theater, where a table of torture devices lines the hallway. He then takes his seat in front of the screen, which teases a gory glimpse at the upcoming 10th installment.
"Somehow, self-amputation feels good in a place like this. Traps — they make movies better," adds Jigsaw in reference to Kidman's quotable promo celebrating theaters re-opening amid the COVID pandemic.
Set between the events of the original 2004 movie and its 2005 sequel, Saw X sees John Kramer (aka Jigsaw) travel to Mexico in hopes of miraculously curing his cancer, only to find out he's been targeted in a fraudulent scheme. Who better to devise a punishment than the twisted genius serial killer?
