From the writers of Saw 4, 5 and 6 comes this highly entertaining bloody movie that knows a thing or two about death traps. The plot is in some ways similar to Saw but not identical. Arkhan is a father trying to make endsmeat for his wife and daughter by reparing houses and putting security systems on them. One day while working Arkhan's boss is going out of town for a family vacationand Arkhan sees this as a perfect oppurtinity to get the diamonds that are in the house. Arkhan needs these diamonds so that he can get the money to give to his wife so that she may pay up her debt with the loan sharks. If Arkhan does not retrieve the money by midnight then the loan sharks will take his wife and daughter and possibly kill them. The plan is fullproof but when Arkhan walks in on a robbery in progress escaping is the challenge because the house is rigged by a homicidal maniac named THE COLLECTOR. I honestly visioned saw in certain parts of this movie such as the traps being similar to saw and the whole there is no escape thing is just a creative tool in this film. Basically i felt that the collector was a much younger and stronger version of jigsaw. My favorite trap in this movie is the trap in which the chandelire has kitchen knives attached to the bottom of it and it is rigged so that if you open the front door it will fall and lets just say the ending would be gruesome. This movie is sick and twisted and i liked what the writers of saw 4,5 and 6 did with their creative minds. THE COLLECTOR is definately a must have in your collection if you love gore movies and you like traps and edge of your seat suspensful moments. Please view the collector on dvd now.
