Suggested correction: Absolutely, positively incorrect. Not only does she get shot in the back and fall forward into her husband's arm in both movies, but they literally use the EXACT same shot of her falling forward into his arms in both films, so it's flat-out impossible for it to be any different. Need proof? Look up "Saw 3 - Game over, ENDING (Amanda, Jeff, Dr Lynn and John) " on YouTube and pause around 1:12. Then look up "Saw 4 - "Game over", ENDING (Eric, Blank, Rigg, Jeff, Strahm and Hoffman) " and pause around 3:36... it's the exact same shot in both films.

Visible crew/equipment: As the camera pans down from the light in the mausoleums at the start, look at the door and you can see the camera shadow moving downwards. (00:06:00)

Factual error: It would not be possible for the scalping device to scalp Brenda's hair in the manner that it does. Hair is too thin to withstand that much pressure when being pulled and would rip long before she began to bleed profusely. At worst, she would likely be bleeding a little bit in a non-fatal manner from having her hair yanked after it ripped.

Revealing mistake: When Ivan impales his right eye, you can tell that the eye is fake because he doesn't so much as flinch when the blade is coming down. (00:45:00)

Continuity mistake: When Rigg puts on his white shirt, there is a wet patch that appears and disappears while Billy is talking on the TV. (00:21:00)

Jigsaw: "Cherish your life" is the motto this whole organization is built on. Cherish your life... your life.

Trivia: At one point, the producers were considering using a version of the autopsy scene as the final scene in "Saw III." It was then retooled and used as the opening for this film.

Question: I don't understand why Hoffman isn't electrocuted at the end. He was connected to high voltage cages and his feet came under water, so how did he and/or Jigsaw plan so he wouldn't be electrocuted under any circumstances?

Answer: The chair wasn't actually electrified. It was just made to look that way in order to hide his involvement in the game.
