Images from Punisher: War Zone have just arrived and inside are 15 new images but I want to focus on two of them, primarily the one featured below of Dominic West (300) as Jigsaw, the film’s bad guy. You see, his real name is Billy Russoti and he is a mob boss The Punisher (Ray Stevenson) took down, and as a result he was left “horribly disfigured,” at least that’s how the official synopsis reads. Based on the images shown I would say he looks fake and stupid and in all honesty I am quite shocked Lionsgate has chosen to screen the film considering their typical decision to keep their films hidden from critics so audiences won’t know what they are walking into.
Punisher: War Zone hits theaters on December 5 and Lionsgate is even screening it, here in Seattle, two days in advance. I’ll hold out hope it’s better than these pics, but if this is how West looks as Jigsaw on screen I am afraid it’s going to be awfully distracting. Looking at him in this picture I keep on thinking he looks like a character from “The Muppets,” I just can’t remember which one.
