Saw in its many iterations seems to be unavoidable in my review queue, with what innumerable sequels and packaging options that Lionsgate has repeatedly released through the years. This new if arguably not really improved 20th Anniversary edition aggregates the ten (so far) Saw films in a nicely designed package that includes what are advertised as "4 horrific art cards".

Audio quality is assessed in the above linked reviews.
On disc supplements are detailed in the above linked reviews. I've uploaded several photos of the packaging of this edition so that those interested can
see what is being offered. As can be seen in the sixth and seventh photos, the discs are stacked on various spindles in the oversized keepcase, and it
probably should come as no surprise to anyone that my review copy arrived with several of the discs dislodged and floating free in the case.
Digital copies are also included.
The Via Vision Australian release of Saw: The Ultimate Collection 4K that I reviewed a couple of years ago still probably handily wins the egregious packaging award, but this stateside edition is handsomely designed in its own way and I guess some collectors may be drawn to the "horrifying" (?) art cards. It probably goes without saying that this will no doubt not be a "complete collection" once the next unavoidable Saw movie is released, but in the meantime, it offers some generally secure technical merits and appealing supplements.
