Speaking about the film, co-directors Michael Spierig, told Entertainment Weekly: "We've got some pretty wild traps in the film - we don't shy away from the gore It's such a perfect Halloween scarefest.
"It's perhaps not quite as vicious and more fun, which is something we tried to inject into it. But's still full of good fun gore, that's for sure. And, on top of that, it's got a really great mystery, and there's very interesting twists. It's Saw for 2017."
Advert
Here's what Twitter has had to say about the trailer:
Given that the last seven Saw films have a combined worldwide box office gross of around $870 million, on a combined budget of roughly $67 million, it's safe to assume the latest offering will be a hit.
The horror will arrive in cinemas just in time for Halloween on October 27.
