The Collector (nothing to do with the 1965 psycho thriller of the same name) started out as a prequel to the Saw series but was fortunately rewritten to become something oddly unique. Aided by a simple yet wonderful setting, fascinating camerawork and an intelligent protagonist, the film rises far above the other films in it's genre before it. Sure it's got some gaping plotholes and some wonky writing here and there but all in all it's an enjoyable, vicious little film that packs some great surprises.
