10 Movies That Only Make Sense At The End
7. Jigsaw
The most recent Saw movie, Jigsaw, introduces a major dose of WTF at the mid-way point when it's revealed that the original Jigsaw Killer, John Kramer (Tobin Bell), is seemingly still alive and well.
This is despite the fact that his throat was irreparably cut with a circular saw all the way back in Saw III, we saw the guy get autopsied in Saw IV, and there's really no conceivable way for him to have come back from the dead.
Even so, accepting the series' penchant for silliness, fans spent the rest of the movie wracking their brains for a solution. Did John Kramer have a twin brother? Has the series gotten desperate enough to get into sci-fi cloning nonsense?
Thankfully Occam's razor eventually won out, with the simplest solution ultimately being the right one.
In the film's customary final twist montage, it's revealed that the "games" featured throughout the movie actually took place a decade prior, back when Kramer was still very much alive.
This also provided a convenient explanation for there being another secret Jigsaw apprentice, Logan (Matt Passmore), in the present, as Logan was actually taken under Kramer's wing a whole 10 years earlier.
Though it's still a pretty convoluted course of events all things considered, that's the Saw franchise for you. At least the filmmakers resisted the temptation to get truly silly with a legit John Kramer resurrection.
