Set in an unnamed city in the United States, the first eight films primarily revolve around the fictional serial killer John “Jigsaw” Kramer, while the ninth movie revolves around a copycat killer while still keeping continuity with the previous films.

John Kramer was introduced briefly in Saw and developed in more detail in Saw II and the subsequent films. Rather than killing his victims outright, he traps them in life-threatening situations that he calls “tests” or “games” to test their will to survive through physical or psychological torture, believing that if they survive, they will be “rehabilitated”.

Kramer was killed off in Saw III, but the films continued to focus on his posthumous influence, particularly by his apprentices, and explore his character via flashbacks.
