The Saw franchise is a novel one. Basically, unlike most horror films, this one actively went out to try and make you puke your entire insides up through your tear-ducts. Instead of having ghouls and monsters and the like (which, it has to be said, are stupidly fun), Saw went about getting the protagonist in each film and making them do unspeakably grim things to themselves.
However, like all horror franchises, you get overkill. There’s only so much gore you can take before you find that you’ve stopped crying and dry-heaving and started masturbating furiously to it. Basically, after a while, violence and open-sores stop being horrible and start becoming… well… nothing really.
And it’s with that that Saw producer Oren Koules confirms that the seventh instalment in the series will be the last. Ever. Ever, ever, ever.

Halloween seems to have lost its bite lately. What’s scary about a couple of children with sheets on their heads asking for confectionery? Nothing.
So how can we make Halloween scary again? Simple – puppets. Puppets and dolls are easily the scariest thing in the entire world. Look at them, staring at you with their cold, dead eyes. They’re terrifying. And we’re pretty sure they all come to life at night and watch you sleep. Seriously, 9‘s released today and that little doll thing freaks us out.
So in the spirit of Halloween we’ve decided to compile the definitive list of culture’s creepiest, freakiest, most uncomfortably nightmarish puppets. Enjoy. And sleep well tonight…

It’s almost impossible to genuinely surprise and shock people in movie theatres these days.
We’ve already seen it all. We suspect every member of the cast of being the murderer. We’ve developed strong stomachs after seeing just about every imaginable way an unstoppable maniac with a huge knife can kill horny teenagers. Even most of the sexual taboos have become mainstream and boring by today’s standards.
Anyway, we may feel pretty unshockable now, but here at hecklerspray we wanted to pay homage to the groundbreaking, WTF moments that really had us staring blankly at the screen in disbelief. These clips are comprised of dastardly plot twists, sickening scenes of deaths or mutilation and, well, moments that really had us questioning the director’s sanity. Enjoy. Just beware there are serious spoilers in here.
