New Saw VI Photo Features Amanda’s Return
By Krystal Clark
It’s just not professional to start an article with “ahhhhhh,” so I won’t degrade myself to that level, even though it’s how I honestly feel. Over at BloodyDisgusting, they’ve posted an exclusive photo of Shawnee Smith aka Amanda in Saw VI. After seeing the first few installments of the Saw series, I was under the impression that she bit the dust a while ago. But somehow she’s back for more.
Check out the full size photo of Amanda in all her Saw glory…
Last week, we posted a photo of Tobin Bell from the film and one of our readers was gracious enough to explain to me how he was still active. I stopped watching the films a long time ago so I don’t have a complete understanding of why certain characters are still around, specifically Amanda and Jigsaw. In this case what the hell is Amanda doing here? Is this a flashback? Didn’t she die right before Jigsaw near his deathbed?
Can someone explain to me how she’s still an active part of this series?

I am so happy she's back! She's probably my second favorite character right behind Jigsaw. She's beautiful, demented….and I love that! She's probably one of the most complex characters in horror history — and no, I'm not exaggerating that statement one bit. Can't wait for Saw VI. And Shawnee Smith looks wonderful in that photo!
And Krystal, to answer your question, Amanda is back in Saw VI through some flashback scenes (You're correct, she died in Saw III right next to Jigsaw's deathbed). We don't know everything about Amanda, and according to reports, she will have a significant role in the film which will effect the outcome of the entire movie. Just because somebody dies in the Saw universe doesn't necessarily mean their story arc is over. That's what I love about these movies — there's always puzzle pieces we need to put together.
