Saw Enters Guinness Book of World Records - mrblue - 07-23-2010
Today, the Guinness Book of World Records will award the Saw franchise as the "Most Successful Horror Movie Series."Twisted Pictures' Mark Burg, a producer of the films told Reuters: "The fact that we beat out (such horror franchises as) 'Friday the 13th,' 'Nightmare on Elm Street,' 'Halloween' and 'Texas Chain Saw Massacre' is a testament to our cast, crew and our partners at Lionsgate."The films have made over $73O million worldwide. The Guinness presentation will take place sometime today at the San Diego Comic-Con. The producers will be on hand to accept the award from Guinness editor-in-chief Craig Glenday.

Damn. I knew it was big, but I didn't know it was that big. Congrats, SAW!

Saw is the king of Horror Franchises and there's no denying it now.
Saw Enters Guinness Book of World Records - FreddysFingers - 07-23-2010
Well that's good... I guess. Though I wouldn't call it the king of horror movie franchises.

I feel I should now go out and rent all movies to give proper respect to such greatness...

Maybe a New Orleans hurricaine
exdev: or bloody mary?

Should have gotten an award for being the goriest Horror movie franchises. I don't know any Horror movie gorier than the whole Saw series.
Saw Enters Guinness Book of World Records - FreddysFingers - 07-25-2010
I think Dead Alive broke that record.
Saw Enters Guinness Book of World Records - Bojangles - 07-25-2010
Dead Alive wasn't a franchise?
Saw Enters Guinness Book of World Records - FreddysFingers - 07-25-2010
It wasn't a franchise but it was extremely gory. I'm sure if you put together all the scenes in Dead Alive it would be pretty close to Saw.
Saw Enters Guinness Book of World Records - HuntingHumans - 07-25-2010
You're right, Dead Alive was gory but gore from a ton of zombie killing. Saw is different in that the torture happens to real human beings in very gruesome ways.
Saw Enters Guinness Book of World Records - Bojangles - 07-25-2010
I still need to finally see Dead Alive.
Saw Enters Guinness Book of World Records - FreddysFingers - 07-25-2010
Just remember, it's camp and nothing more.
Saw Enters Guinness Book of World Records - Bojangles - 07-26-2010
Sweet.
Saw Enters Guinness Book of World Records - Team America: World Police - 11-09-2010
SAW Fuck yea!
Saw Enters Guinness Book of World Records - Creamy Goodness - 07-28-2011
At this rate, I expect Paranormal Activity to possibly meet or even beat Saw's record. That is if PA lasts for seven movies or more.
Saw Enters Guinness Book of World Records - FreddysFingers - 07-28-2011
Are they making a third movie?
Saw Enters Guinness Book of World Records - Creamy Goodness - 07-28-2011
Yeah, man. The trailer is out now. Comes out this October.
