saw 11 slashes into theaters sept 2024

Dec 12, 2023 2:04 AM

The iconic horror franchise, Saw, gears up for another spine-chilling installment as Lionsgate officially confirms Saw XI's release date for September 27, 2024. This announcement comes just after Saw X's successful theatrical run in late September, which continued the franchise's tradition of fall releases. Saw X, directed by Kevin Greutert, demonstrated an enduring appeal of the Saw series and proved financially viable, raking in $107 million worldwide on a modest budget. The franchise's protagonist, Jigsaw, was anticipated to hang up his infamous mantle in Saw X, however, Greutert's words "never say never" leave the door open for future twists.

In the broader context, the horror genre remains a strong performer at the box office, with recent successes like Five Nights at Freddy’s grossing $288 million worldwide. The genre showcases a trend with upcoming sequels to movies such as Talk to Me, It Follows, and The Black Phone. Saw XI thus aligns with a robust slate of horror content that continues to captivate audiences and draw them to theaters.

When is Saw XI coming out?

Saw XI is scheduled for release on September 27, 2024.

Horror fans can sharpen their proverbial blades for another round of Jigsaw's macabre games—Saw XI's release date drop is like a perfectly laid trap, luring in audiences for more psychological thrills. With the genre continuing to kill it at the box office, Saw's enduring legacy is a grisly gift that keeps on giving for both fans and filmmakers alike.
