uh. no. you mean The running man. Saw is just a murder revenge plot.Already done, it's called Saw.
The Running man is a cash money for risking your life game show. (which granted, they cheat and there are no winners, save the people viewing at home.) the short story the long walk, was EXPRESSLY randos signing up to the death march, on the chance of winning unlimited money for life. it had alot in common, with focusing on the characters motivations, and interactions.
Theres also Death race, etc. the "prisoners fight to the death to get out of jail" genre.
And, "The most dangerous game" adaptations. which usually involved cash prizes for the person that survives the hunt, and rich assholes paying for the privilege's to hunt humans.
