Halloween Weekend...

...would seem to be kind to horror movies making their debuts, and the one definitely was for Saw II, which is getting good press for beating out the Zorro nonsense. I've heard good things about it, including that it is more intense (or gruesome, if that's the way you feel about it) than the first one.

Speaking of Saw, here's an interesting profile of Tobin Bell, the man who plays Jigsaw. One line from it that's classic: "...Bell doesn't want his career to be limited to emaciated lunatics who enjoy forcing unpleasant people to kill each other for sport." No?

One Seinfeld footnote: Mr. Bell played "Ron" in the episode "The Old Man." It's important.
