Scientist Bruce Banner desperately hunts for a cure to the gamma radiation that poisoned his cells and unleashes the unbridled force of rage within him: The Hulk. Living in the shadows--cut off from a life he knew and the woman he loves, Betty Ross--Banner struggles to avoid the obsessive pursuit of his nemesis, General Thunderbolt Ross, and the military machinery that seeks to capture him and brutally exploit his power. As all three grapple with the secrets that led to The Hulk's creation, they are confronted with a monstrous new adversary known as The Abomination, whose destructive strength exceeds even The Hulk's own. To stop it, one scientist must make an agonizing final choice: accept a peaceful life as Bruce Banner or find heroism in the creature he holds inside--The Incredible Hulk.

Below: Seven "Saw 4 Movie Posters" 
This Halloween, fear will be embedded in a whole new way.
Wild About Movies was the first movie website to bring you the unofficial teaser poster of "Saw 4."
Production offices for "Saw 4" opened on February 12, 2007, to begin the pre-production period. The filming of "Saw 4" began on April 16, 2007 and continued for 6 weeks. The filming location for the horror film was Toronto, the same place both Saw II and Saw III were filmed. Numerous writers have been writing scripts for the fourth installment of the Saw horror franchise. Yet the story chosen for the movie by its producers is written by Patrick Melton and Marcus Dunstan who together wrote the script for "Feast."
In "Saw 4" Jigsaw and his apprentice Amanda are dead. Now, upon the news of Detective Kerry's murder, two seasoned FBI profilers, Agent Strahm and Agent Perez, arrive in the terrified community to assist the veteran Detective Hoffman in sifting through Jigsaw's latest grizzly remains and piecing together the puzzle. However, when SWAT Commander Rigg is abducted and thrust into a game, the last officer untouched by Jigsaw has but ninety minutes to overcome a series of demented traps and save an old friend or face the deadly consequences.

I like the way Dezel Washington plays the role of Frank Lucas in this film. It really fits him well...
