As fans await the upcoming Chris Rock relaunch of the Saw franchise called Spiral, Lionsgate has other new plans. They're readying a brand new 4K UHD edition of the original film from 2004. Although it often gets categorized in the torture porn category, the original film was a major hit for the studio and launched a franchise that has seen numerous sequels, continuations, and now a movie that will star Chris Rock and Samuel Jackson. That's nothing to be ashamed of. They still think they can squeeze more blood from Saw in the form of spinoffs and other movies, so be it. 

Now, they've announced that the first film will be coming home in a brand new 4K UHD release of the unrated edition. It will be released on May 11th, 2021. It will feature tons of special features including the original short film which inspired the movie, The Legacy of Saw documentary, several audio commentaries, trailers, storyboard sequences and even more features.

Spiral will hit theaters just a few days later on May 14th. Check out the cover art below.
