Seth (Joris Jarsky) is a former inmate and convicted murdered, but now has been released from prison only to find himself underneath a swinging, sharpened pendulum. No one seems to be able to escape the sadistic tricks of Jigsaw, but was this really a trap set by him? Soon after, Agent Strahm (Scott Paterson) reappears in the story from Saw IV. He too finds himself in a sick trap, but emerges alive. Seeing that his top investigator is alive, the chief of police assumes the Jigsaw murders have come to an end, and thus the case is dismissed. However, only Strahm knows the truth. He returns to his office and the police station, and begins investigating the victims of the Jigsaw murders over again. Saw V is a twisted tale of death, mystery, and sadism, all with a shocking ending. Will Jigsaw come out on top of the game? Will Straham solve the mystery of the new deaths? Only those who survive...

Notes
Goofs:
Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): In the film, Erickson is constantly wearing a BlueTooth headset. When Hoffman calls him from Strahm's mobile phone, he answers the phone as normal, not using the headset. He appears to repeat this when he tries to track Strahm's mobile phone. (more)
