I don't get the cops at the end. *SPOILERS

Maybe I am stupid not to get the ending but why didn't the cops do anything?

Is it because Leigh's character didn't actually see any of the people commit the murders?

Is it because the cops didn't believe him and they know the family and like them?

Shouldn't the whole area have been taped off and investigated no matter what?

Or did the cops know about everything and were in on it and traded not telling anyone for human pies?

Even if the old man called the cops pretending to be nice, a massive federal investigation should have happened immediately whether it be dark or not...

all your points are right.

the movie was stupid

[–] TwoMushrooms 15 years ago

No, it is pretty clearly explained in the movie. Once the cops get into the car, the younger cop asks what they should do. The older sheriff says that he grew up there in that place, that they are good people and that he "will take care of it". Basically, the sheriff was one of them weird townspeople. That is why he is smiling when they are driving back, and is feeding the young cop with that special "pie".

"Remember, guns don't kill people. Dangerous minorities do."

Yeah thanks. That was one of my thoughts but the movie was horrible. Maybe I didn't hear the policeman properly because I was half asleep.

Leigh is lucky he is a billionaire because he is one awful actor.

A billionaire? In what, Zimbabwe dollars? Nitwit. Saw has made money, but not that much money.

Haha. Exaggeration. Heard of it nitwit?

That wasn't exaggeration, that was just stupidity. You need to retake your English comprehension lessons.

Actually, it was exaggeration. I don't give a toss if you don't believe me because I know why I wrote it. I was exaggerating the point that he has a *beep* load of money by calling him a billionaire instead of a millionaire. Don't believe me? Whatevs... I see you are just up for a flame. Are you bored?

I also see stupidity, but not from me. I would agree that I would need to retake these imaginary English comprehension lessons you speak of if I had made a grammatical or spelling error. I think you meant I should retake my finance and economic lessons. Who's the stupid one? Owned.

[–] bogwart-1 14 years ago

I meant what I said. You have no ability in English grammar. Every solecism in the book. And to finish a posturing little post with "owned"? Give me a break. I am bored. Bored with little clowns like you who are so ignorant that they believe whatever they write must be true.

That's it from me; if you want to prove me right you will of course return and show off your non-existent skills. Finance and economic lessons? You need those to work behind a shop counter these days?

Now run along or I'll taunt you some more.

You have no ability in English grammar.

Hey Professor. If I had NO ability in English grammar everything I had written would be in one sentence with no punctuation (that means not even a full stop Einstein). Owned again.

Owned is a gaming/internet term and if you don’t like it get off the net and quit your whining and crying.

Shop counter? I am sure I have a better occupation than you.

You don’t bore me. I think hypocritical egotistical grammar police are hilarious.

I love our little talks. Kisses bogy baby.

Leigh's acting was possibly the only good point of this movie, in my opinion.
