See some horrific new Saw V images

If you're not a fan of blood, torture devices and people in writhing in agony, don't go to the Saw V gallery to your right.

But if you've got a sick streak, go ahead and take a look. You'll also get to see how Tobin Bell returns to the franchise, in amongst the shotguns and screams.

Is this the end?

With a tagline ('You won't believe how it ends') and a cast list that sees every major character from all four previous flicks making an appearance, all signs suggest this is the final Saw.

But we'll wait and see how it does at the box office before we confirm the franchise's time of death.

In the meantime, check out the pics to your right and see how many returning characters you can spot.
