Lionsgate has revealed both the plot and the full cast list for Saw V, which will be released right in time for Halloween on October 24, 2008.

The studio's description of the film states that Hoffman (Costas Mandylor) is apparently the last person left to carry on the legacy of Jigsaw (Tobin Bell). When that secret is threatened, Hoffman must go on the hunt to eliminate any loose ends.

The cast of Saw V includes Scott Petterson, Betsy Russell, Mark Rolston, Carlo Rota, Julie Benz, Greg Bryk, Laura Gordon and Meagan Good. The film will be directed by David Hackl, and the script was written by Patrick Melton and Marcus Dunstan.
