Saw is a lot like Se7en that inspired it a lot which is precisely what makes it a horror movie since Se7en's creators consider their movie horror as well

>the writing and acting are terrible
The acting is mostly fine for the type of film it's trying to be. I agree that Cary Elwes doesn't do a very good job of portraying hypovolemic shock at the end but as far as Adam is concerned Leigh Whannell's amateur acting fits his character's personality to a T and helps make him seem more like a real person than if he had been portrayed by a skilled veteran. You're just plain wrong about it being badly written though.
