Thrill and Theme

Pros:

  • "This is a great thrill ride. I especially enjoy the bit that is inside in the dark and then also it's a great feeling to fall down completely vertically."
  • "The ride is AMAZING. It is one of the best horror theme ride I ever been on."
  • "Easily one of the best rides at Thorpe park, and possibly one of the best themed rides in the United Kingdom."
  • "One of the best rollercoasters I have ever been on, great atmosphere and really intense ride."
  • "The theming for this ride is great and being a fan of the saw franchise I really love this saw experience and feel like I'm part of a movie."

Cons:

  • "Can sometimes get long queues that weaken the experience."
  • "Didn't get to ride, it broke down twice while queuing."
  • "The other problem was when we were asked to leave our phone so they didn't get broke and the person taking the phones then dropped all 3."
  • "Broke down on us back in July & we were sat waiting in the boiling heat for over half an hour."
  • "The queue was long as hell and the weather was crazy hot so kind of an unbearable wait."

Queue and Waiting Experience

Pros:

  • "Its safe to drop your bag off, they offer a drop off and collection facility, giving you a rubber band in return."
  • "Fast track is definitely recommend for this ride."
  • "The queue can move quite reasonably as the coaster can run quite a few trains."
  • "The queue is not too mad as it is quite visually pleasing with little references to saw the movie."
  • "Queue times obviously depend on what day you go but we waited a maximum of 10 minutes all day, for any ride."

Cons:

  • "Long queue and In the baking heat but well worth the 40 minute wait."
  • "Although there is a good amount of shade on parts of the queue, but there is a lot of the queue line that isn't well shaded and on hot days can be unbearable."
  • "The queue was long as hell and the weather was crazy hot so kind of an unbearable wait."
  • "The queue line was way too long."
  • "The Park was really busy! Queued for this ride for around 60 to 90 minutes in the heat of 26 degrees."

Ride Comfort and Safety

Pros:

  • "It is also the only ride where they safely store all your items in boxes before the ride."
  • "The staff are great and the ride felt safe whilst being scary and definitely for thrill seekers."
  • "The customer service team was great too. I lost my glasses on the ride and someone successfully returned it back to me."
  • "When you get to the part where you board the coaster, there is a helpful bag check-in."
  • "This ride is smooth and thrilling."

Cons:

  • "Not my favourite ride at Thorpe Park but it's ok. I feel it throws you around in your seat a bit and I felt a bit sore afterwards."
  • "Your head is completely uncontrollable and would be so much fun if the seats were more cushioned or appropriate."
  • "Love this ride but sit on the back of the 2 rows or you will be knocked senseless."
  • "Worth noting that you might experience head/neck pain as you'll probably bang your head a bit given the speed."
  • "This ride caused me and my friend serious head pain."
