Saw is an Australian short film. Directed by James Wan and written by Leigh Whannell, it served as the spiritual predecessor of the American Saw franchise. After writing the script for the first Saw film, Wan and Whannel tried to attract producers for the realization of their film. Therefore they filmed the short movie, which was based on a scene from their script. When they sent it to Lions Gate Entertainment, the producers Oren Koules, Mark Burg and Gregg Hoffman were so impressed by the short film that they decided to produce the feature film which started the successful Saw saga. The short film was eventually released as a bonus feature on the Blu-Ray and DVD version of Saw.
