Saw V (2008)

Jigsaw and his young apprentice, Amanda, are dead. But the grisly games continue. 5 supposed strangers find themselves in the midst of the big game, and believe they are in a survival of the fittest competition. Via his now infamous video linked doll, Jigsaw conveys the message that they should ignore their instincts, and ignore his advice at their peril. Meanwhile, agent Strahm wants to prove that Hoffman is an apprentice to Jigsaw, and pursues him as he continues his twisted games. What Strahm does not realize is that Hoffman is testing him all along, and must pass his test in order to stay alive.

Seth Baxter, a convicted murderer released from prison on a technicality, awakens chained to a table underneath a pendulum blade. A videotape informs him that crushing his hands between the presses will release him. He does so, but the blade still swings down and cuts him in half, as someone watches through a hole in the wall. In the meatpacking plant, FBI Agent Peter Strahm guns down Jeff Denlon in self-defense and is locked in the sickroom. He locates an exit in the wall and finds a microcassette recorder, which implores him to remain in the sickroom, but he ignores it and is attacked in the tunnel by a pig-masked figure. He awakens with a box sealed around his head that quickly fills with water, but he survives by performing a tracheotomy using his pen. Outside, Detective Mark Hoffman delivers Corbett Denlon to the police claiming they are the only survivors, and is shocked when Strahm is brought out alive as well.

Jill Tuck meets with John Kramer's attorney, the administrator of his will. She is left a large box and a videotape, in which John professes his love for her and stresses the "grave importance" of the box's contents. She opens it with a key hung around her neck and then leaves without disclosing its contents. During a press conference, a memorial service is held for Lieutenant Daniel Rigg and Detectives David Tapp, Steven Sing, Allison Kerry, and Eric Matthews; Hoffman is promoted to detective lieutenant and credited with closing the case.

He finds a note in his office that reads "I know who you are" and, while taking Strahm's phone, learns of the death of Strahm's partner, Lindsey Perez. He visits Strahm at the hospital, who tells him that Perez's last words were his name, and questions how Hoffman escaped the plant unharmed. Strahm is also visited by his boss, Dan Erickson, who takes him off the case. Now suspicious of Hoffman and determined to piece together his involvement, Strahm takes case files of past Jigsaw victims and begins researching them on his own.

In an underground chamber, five people – Ashley, a former fire inspector; Brit, a real estate vice president; Charles, an investigative journalist; Luba (Meagan Good), a city planner; and Mallick, an arsonist - awaken with collars connected to mounted blades locked around their necks. The keys are in glass boxes across the room, though advancing will set off a one-minute timer. A videotape advises them to "do the opposite" of their instincts throughout the tests and says that all five are connected. Mallick activates the timer and everyone reaches their keys in time except Ashley, who is decapitated when the collars retract. Their starting room and each subsequent room has timed nail bombs in the corners, forcing the group to move forward. The remaining four learn more about each other in the next room, and a videotape informs them that keys to three bomb shelters are in overhead jars.
