The unstoppable sado-porn series rolls on with "Saw VII," also known as "Saw 3-D" for those of you who didn't learn Roman numerals in school. It's rated R for "sequences of grisly bloody violence and torture, and language." Thank heavens there's no nudity; it might corrupt impressionable minds. As usual, master craftsman Jigsaw (Tobin Bell) reaches from beyond the grave to slice, dice and shish-kebab various types of hypocrites. This is a pretty flimsy plot, especially the seventh time out. But in this chapter, thanks to the miracle of 3-D technology, the blood and bile will fly right into viewers' faces. The film was not screened for the press; we'll have a review online directly and in print soon afterward.
