32 'Spiral' Quotes That Reveal How Much We Need Jigsaw Back

After the worldwide success of "Saw" and its many sequels, it makes sense to try to revive the story in some way, although the main character, Jigsaw, has been dead for many years. "Spiral" wasn't the most successful try, but fans of this universe should read these 32 "Spiral" quotes.

Soon into the story, audiences realize that these "Jigsaw tricks" seem to target other cops. However, the detectives also uncover a dirty secret the department has been trying to hide, which is what the killer wanted to bring to life.

While it's not the best Jigsaw film – as it has a different feeling than the original franchise – it's also not a bad try. But it was badly marketed, and only real fans even knew it was coming out. It got lost in the hoopla of some other amazing horror release between 2021 and 2022.

Still, it's nice to see a comedian take on a serious and trying role, although Rock still brought some of his humor to Zeke Banks. Samuel L. Jackson also appeared in the film as Banks' father, who was also a detective and had a different reputation than his son. Let's remember these 32 "Spiral" quotes.
