It's an appropriate, semi-poetic ending to Hoffman's character journey, tied up the loose ends surrounding Gordon, and ended the series on a high note. Gordon leaves Hoffman to die in the very room he ended the original film, bleeding out after severing his own leg with a saw, although he doesn't even offer Hoffman that option for escape. Lawrence Gordon (Cary Elwes) from the first Saw. Hoffman eventually murders Jigsaw's widow Jill Tuck (Betsy Russell) with a reverse bear trap, leading to the reveal of Jigsaw's final apprentice: Dr. The problem is that after Jigsaw's death, Hoffman became more and more unhinged, and began playing games that no one could actually win, just to torture or punish those he deemed appropriate. Having died in Saw 3, Jigsaw had used various apprentices to posthumously continue his "work," including Detective Mark Hoffman (Costas Mandylor). While the main game in Saw 7 - which sees motivational speaker Bobby Dagen (Sean Patrick Flanery) put through hell for lying about being a Jigsaw survivor - isn't very compelling, the overall story gets wrapped up pretty nicely.
Even if Spiral turns out good, many won't be able to shake the feeling that Lionsgate should've left well enough alone. Sure, Saw 3D: The Final Chapter - alternately titled Saw 7 when not seen in the third dimension - certainly wasn't one of the best overall films in the Saw franchise, but it brought the story to a conclusive end.

The amount of foresight displayed by Kramer concerning events that would take place after his death sometimes stretched credibility, but unlike most horror franchises, Saw actually bothered to maintain tight continuity between installments. That makes sense, as despite the amount of twists and turns included, the first seven Saw films managed to tell a mostly coherent, intertwined story revolving around Jigsaw and his games. While there's certainly many Saw fans looking forward to seeing what Spiral has in store for the franchise, there's also a sizable segment that are approaching the film with trepidation.
