The upcoming Saw X is being positioned as a nostalgic return to form for the franchise, with the brand new tenth installment bringing back Jigsaw (Tobin Bell) and Amanda (Shawnee Smith) for a new piece of the puzzle that’s set after the events of the original Saw.
What else is coming back, you ask? Bloody Disgusting is thrilled to announce today that Lionsgate’s iconic “red gears” logo intro is making a return in Saw X on September 29, 2023!
To further ensure that Saw X truly feels like classic Saw right out of the gate, Lionsgate is bringing back the retro glory of the “red gears,” a staple of their horror releases from the past.
Horror fans – and Saw fans in particular – have been demanding the return of the classic intro for a while now, as those rusty gears just feel like the only way to open a Saw movie proper.

Lionsgate teases, “The return of Tobin Bell to the franchise furthers Lionsgate and Twisted Pictures’ goal of a film that captures everything Saw fans love about the franchise, while also keeping them guessing with all-new traps and a new mystery to solve.”
“John Kramer (Tobin Bell) is back for the untold chapter of Jigsaw’s final games.”
“Set between the events of Saw I and II, a sick and desperate John travels to Mexico for a risky and experimental medical procedure in hopes of a miracle cure for his cancer – only to discover the entire operation is a scam to defraud the most vulnerable.
“The infamous killer returns to his work, turning the tables on the con artists in his signature visceral way through devious, deranged, and ingenious traps.”
Kevin Greutert (Saw VI, Saw 3D) directed Saw X for Lionsgate.
