10 Most Disturbing Saw Movie Traps

3. The Bedroom Trap (Saw IV)

Every Saw film has a central trial; a person (or group) is forced to endure test after test to save themselves (or others). In Saw IV, Riggs's trial has him doing Jigsaw's dirty work, with Jigsaw trying to teach him his point of view.

For this trap, Riggs has to strap a rapist into a device which will tear his limbs off unless he presses two buttons, which will drive scythes into his eyes.

There's something about eye pain which freaks a lot of people out, and it's almost a surprise that they've only been directly involved in two Jigsaw traps. What makes this one the more disturbing of the two- and earns it a place on the list- is the circumstances behind it. Seeing Riggs get so enraged at the guy for his crimes he willingly sets the trap is bad enough; the fact that, for a moment, we all think Jigsaw has a point makes it even worse.
