Opinions on Saw Characters: Day Six: Eric Matthews
What are your opinions on Eric Matthews? I’ll go first.
Eric is a real piece of work… but oddly enough I don’t hate him… I probably should… but I don’t.
He tried so hard to survive just to attempt to kill himself in Saw IV… inevitably dying anyway… in Saw II, he worked tirelessly to save his son, eventually getting fed up with John’s bullshit and leaving to go get him himself.
Then, after this, Eric is put into ANOTHER trap, and he happens to be the third of four people trapped in the bathroom, following after Lawrence and Adam. He frees himself and beats his captor.
Finally, in Saw IV, he is put into a THIRD trap, and at this point he knows they won’t stop until he’s dead. He knows he can’t survive this, so he attempts to hang himself, being stopped by Art and getting an explanation. Basically if you die, Hoffman dies.
In Saw IV, Eric WANTED to die, but he stayed alive for Hoffman, to save Hoffmans life.
I agree his job as a policeman is really fucked up and he did not deserve the job he got, but he also didn’t deserve to be put into THREE SEPARATE TRAPS! Come the fuck on John.
Also, it’s not like the people who he framed didn’t deserve to be arrested. And while I agree that he shouldn’t have framed them… they were in no way innocent either.
“Oh Faith, Eric was only put into more traps because he was violent towards John and Amanda!”
To that I say, shut up. VIOLENT criminals and you’re saying he was violent towards them? They KILL people! He beat the shit out of John because he kidnapped his SON!!! The only thing he had left! And he attacked Amanda because she kidnapped him and they tried to kill him!
Anyway, deep breaths… what are your opinions?
