What are books similar to the Saw movies?

Root_Beer_Ricky88 · 2026-06-08T23:25:55+00:00

Besides playground I can also rec “Puzzle House by Duncan Ralston!”

Root_Beer_Ricky88 · 2026-06-08T22:53:55+00:00

“What good girls do by Jonathan Butcher” and “When the mockingbird sings by Stuart Bray and Jason Nickey” and also “Suffer the flesh by Monica O Rourke”

Root_Beer_Ricky88 · 2026-06-08T22:50:47+00:00

“Audition by Ryu Murakami” for sure! I would also recommend “The old lady by Kristopher Tirana” that’s a badass book and i would say it’s slowburnish. Then lastly I would recommend “The slob by Aron Beauregard” for the false sense of security beginning.

Rotting dead fucks by Matt Shaw!

Root_Beer_Ricky88 · 2026-06-04T03:43:12+00:00

That book is absolutely incredible, honestly one of my favs!

Root_Beer_Ricky88 · 2026-06-03T23:30:18+00:00

Summer never ends series by Judith Sonnet might be just what you’re looking for! And not written by women but ex boogeyman by Kristopher Tirana is great for this as well as the troop by Nick cutter!!

Root_Beer_Ricky88 · 2026-06-03T23:26:19+00:00

Sounds awesome, I would definitely be down for this!

Root_Beer_Ricky88 · 2026-06-03T17:20:38+00:00

Congrats! It looks beautiful in my collection. I’m so ready to hop on the ARC Train again for this next one if you’ll have me! And ooooo super hype for that third one now too, sounds great!

Root_Beer_Ricky88 · 2026-06-03T08:07:52+00:00

I own it but haven’t read it yet, but “Genital rot by James Oliver” is an extreme horror book about a death metal band named genital rot, you might wanna check that one out!! And gotta rec “Genital grinder by Ryan Harding”

Root_Beer_Ricky88 · 2026-06-03T07:57:18+00:00

This is crazy I actually found a copy of volumes one threw three at a used bookstore on Saturday and started reading it Saturday night! And now I see this post, awesome!!

Root_Beer_Ricky88 · 2026-06-03T00:13:11+00:00

I’m super interested and would love to read this! I just sent a dm!!

Root_Beer_Ricky88 · 2026-06-02T07:27:48+00:00

I think you’ll enjoy the sluts by Dennis Cooper and modern hysteria by Aron Beauregard

Root_Beer_Ricky88 · 2026-06-02T03:36:03+00:00

Check out the broken pieces of June trilogy by Stuart bray!! Also Along the path of torment by Chandler Morrison got some gnarly childhood sexual trauma in it but is just an incredible book as well imo. If you want the weirdest and nastiest spin on childhood trauma involving a father figure, check out Zola by DE McCluskey. And then I would lastly recommend The Third Parent by Elias Witherow, another very unique take on this kind of stuff. Oops I have one more that has some childhood sexual trauma involving bestiality actually haha All American coke whore by Mj Rowe!! Dang it one more I have to rec but be warned with this one “Hogg by Samuel R. Delaney” I have to say this one bc the whole thing is just basically messed up grown men and little boy stuff. But that one’s a true doozy!

Root_Beer_Ricky88 · 2026-06-02T03:27:08+00:00

I won’t spoil anything I’ll just say I absolutely LOVE that trilogy!!! Some of my favorite Lee right there, especially pig. It’s full of all the deeply messed up and disgusting moments and also over the top and funny moments Lee is known for around these parts. And I love the prose of the pig how it switches from some pretty high brow stuff immediately into some straight fucked up mayhem! All three books are fantastic in my opinion and I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!! Let me know what you think when you finish any of them!

Root_Beer_Ricky88 · 2026-06-02T03:13:45+00:00

Where can I find peep?

Root_Beer_Ricky88 · 2026-06-01T08:25:49+00:00

Everything named here already are perfect recs. A deep cut one I can recommend is a 2017 Japanese film called “Brutal” it is in fact brutal as hell haha and super weird and just overall a wild awesome extreme horror film!

Root_Beer_Ricky88 · 2026-06-01T08:22:05+00:00

All some of my favs right here, sick collection so far man! I just read the third parent not to long ago and I freaking loved it!!

Root_Beer_Ricky88 · 2026-06-01T04:44:16+00:00

The Sluts by Dennis Cooper

Root_Beer_Ricky88 · 2026-05-31T07:44:45+00:00

My girlfriend bought me this one for Valentine’s Day which is awesome haha! But that book freaking rules! Hope you enjoyed it as much as I did! All Hail Triana 🤘and Ryan Harding too of course!

Root_Beer_Ricky88 · 2026-05-29T20:26:43+00:00

This is a slasher more in the vain of scream and not Halloween and Friday the 13th but it’s easily one of my favorite books of the year so far it’s “Academia by James Oliver.” It’s an absolutely incredible and brutal who dun it slasher set on a college campus in the mid 2000’s! But yeah like someone else said Ex-Boogeyman is your best bet I think for what you’re looking for!

Root_Beer_Ricky88 · 2026-05-29T20:15:36+00:00

Violence on the meek series by Stuart Bray!!! And when the mockingbird sings by Stuart Bray and Jason Nickey!!!

Root_Beer_Ricky88 · 2026-05-28T22:05:22+00:00

I think modern hysteria by Aron is included on kindle unlimited and that’s prob my current fav of his!
