Xaw 6


Here's how it has been ranked the last film of the Saw saga by the Ministry of Culture of Spain, saying it "incites violence". Should be borne in mind that in Spain it means that the film has a rating of pornographic. And of course Disney-Buena Vista, its distributor, has not taken any good news. As for great evil, great remedies: for the moment the film is not exhibited in Spain. But this is a more serious problem.
On one side the fact that a large American producer, does not need the Spanish market to survive, even in times of crisis.
For another, the question of Spanish cinemas will not really enjoy the success the series has garnered.
And finally piss off Disney-Buena Vista, a distributor that has a large presence in Spain through several Disney films, many other films and several successful TV series like "Alias" or "Grey's Anatomy."
While change is expected from the Ministry, the film follows billboards announcing its opening-night throughout the city.
