Jimsaw Killer

"Rumors abound that genius criminal-mastermind the Jimsaw Killer is back from dead and is planning to embark on a new rein of terror across the nation. I'd just like to address people's fears and concerns and let them know that - A: Jimsaw Killer is dead. B: Jimsaw Killer never existed to begin with, probably; And C: I'm definitely not him."

- Jim Sterling.

The Jimsaw Killer is a fictious persona of game-reviewer Jim Sterling (birth-name James Nicholas Stanton) for his game-review and critque web-series, The Jimquistion. Jim uses The Jimsaw Killer once a year on Halloween and alludes to his re-emergence leading up to his Halloween special as if he were a real-killer. When the Jimsaw Killer appear, he does so to punish practitioners of various injustices through-out AAA video-game marketing.

Though prior years Jim Sterling used a fitionalized persona of Scarecrow to role-play as, on October, 5, 2015 in the episode "Enjoy The Silence, Feel The Noise " Jim first address the wild rumors that he uses his Patreon money to build ironic death-traps, something he strongly denies, while at the time wearing a mask, hood, and carrying a switch-blade, while standing in-front of a buzz-saw. At the end of the episode, Jim's figurine, or a vary similar figurine to/of miniature fantasy Willem Dafoe, is caught making a prepared recording for a Capcom executive, in-which he elaborates on a trap to stick said executive into a room filling with poison gas, with the key to get out of the room having been surgically implanted in their penis and thus the only way to get out is to cut-open their penis. miniature fantasy Willem Dafoe refers to the process as On-Dick-DLC. However shortly before the video ends, the puppeteer behind miniature fantasy Willem Dafoe concludes the trap is slightly over-kill, ending the recording and instead deciding to workshop a new trap.

On the following episode "Homicide", The Jimsaw Killer himself is caught on another scrambled recording at the end of the video. He is making a bargain with an anomalous black-market Dealer going by the name "C.B." Jimsaw briefly let's slip he has a Patreon and thus can easily pay for the "goods". When asked about what he meant by "Patreon", the Jimsaw Killer quickly changes the subject, reminding C.B. That his main concern should be the goods. Once the deal is confirmed Jimsaw says it is huge load off his mind and hangs up after affirming payment details about leaving unmarked bills under a bridge for the drop-off.

As a brief precursor to the following episode, "Pay Day", a recording is shown from a first-person perspective of the Jimsaw Killer standing in-front of two trucks, one containing Mountain Dew and the other containing Doritos. With Jimsaw gloating that all the pieces of his plan are coming together nicely.

In the episode, "Why I Kick The Starts" Jim ends the video quickly, explaining he has to go attend to some important business, re-stating that it has nothing to do with the whole "Jimsaw thing the papers are talking about". The outro of the video concludes with US X-Box representative Philip Spengler being ambushed in his car by Jimsaw, who was hiding in the back seat with a chloroform-laden handkerchief he uses to abduct Spengler.

On the 2015 Halloween special of The Jimquistion "The Golden Sins Of Horror Games". The fate of Philip Spengler is revealed, as he awakens in garage with a bucket on his head, with his shoes and socks removed. Next to Spengler is a television with a recording of Miniture Fantasy Willem Dafoe playing, announcing the situation to Spengler in Jimsaw's distorted voice. The recording states that the rabid engine of X-Box user's fanaticism has been fueled by his commercial for Mountain Dew and Doritos and that he wants to see if Spengler can swallow his own medicine. Spengler, as he has Jimsaw's elaborate bucket-trap on his head, can not hear what is being said well. Exasperated that his victim can not savor the situation he is in, Jimsaw comes into the room himself to explain the ironic punishment to him.

Jimsaw elaborates upon his trap, saying the bucket on Spengler's head is a waterproof device with the tube on-top attaching to a supply of Mountain Dew. Jimsaw goes on to say that the only way out of there is a key to the trap on the other side of the garage but it is across a sharp-jagged sea of Doritos. He says he has resolved the plot hole of no one showing up by having long since attended to the neighbor (by sending them bad video-games and a pound of weed to keep them busy).

Following the video, it is revealed that the bucket was in-fact not water-tight and the Mountain Dew leaked out after being pumped in. Jimsaw takes the blame, saying that the bucket not being as secure as he predicted was his fault. Jimsaw however re-states that even with drowning not being an issue, Spengler will not be going home if he can't get to the door across the Doritos so he is still going to need to walk across then bare-foot. Spengler refuses, though Jimsaw states that both of them have to go home sometime so he had better cross the Doritos and be done with it. Spengler, in a desperate move to put an end to the whole affair tells Jimsaw he will pay him $20.00 to do it for him instead. Intrigued by the promesis of $20, Jimsaw agrees to do so instead, taking off his shoes and going to cross the Doritos. Almost immediately Jimsaw recoils in aggony as the Doritos cut into his bare-feet. While Jimsaw is reeling in pain, Philip Spengler puts on Jimsaw's shoes and quickly flees across the Doritos. Seemingly defeated, Jimsaw proclaims that Spengler still has to walk home covered in Mountain Dew.

After the credits Jimsaw's television plays recording he had not planed on. The video plays with video-game developer, Cliff Bleszinski, revealing Jimsaw's scheme was in-fact not his own, but a farce engineered by Bleszinski. He asks who else would have a Mountain Dew guy, or could get a truck full of Doritos. Jimsaw then recalls his phone call with "C.B." he took to get his supplies. Bleszinski states it was all an set-up to pay Jimsaw back for giving his game Gears of War 3 an 8/10. Bleszinski had sealed the exits and removed all supplies and entertainment other than the traps themselves. The only thing Cliff Bleszinski left Jimsaw is a game of Thunder-Cats, a game Jim Sterling had reviewed and found horrendous. The video ends with Jimsaw crying out in despair at being caught in his own trap with such a horrible game and Cliff Bleszinski laughing.
