Plot? What plot? Oh yeah, so.....
A young black biker plans to become leader of his gang by killing the leader of a white gang, but after a ridiculously long chase, he's killed in a crash.... He takes the boy's "colors" back to the black gang & tries to smooth things out & goes back to his own gang.....
Meanwhile, a stranger shows up posing as a stereotypical southern racist who wants to join the gang... One gang member is suspicious of everything about the guy, while the leader thinks he's okay....
At that same time, a local cop visits each gang & convinces them that the other is about to move in on their territory.....

Amusingly, this movie uses pretty much every cliché I've ever heard of, with lots of long drawn out scenes of rides & bad music.... Only exception, there's a central figure who's not really a protagonist... None of the characters have any redeeming qualities.....

JIGSAW (2017)

3rd movie in the SAW franchise I've seen, after part 6 (at the time), and part 8 (about a year ago).

not that bad actually! reasonable modern horror movie fare (a place where 'reasonable' = way above average!)

the twist confused me so much that I rewound the end of the movie and watched it twice, then read the explanation in the wikipedia plot page, and I still don't really understand it!

bit like the standard giallo in that sense then!

strange thing is, I searched 'SAW movies ranked' before watching and this one was either last place or in the bottom 2 of all the lists I checked
