Tonight I chose to watch a personal favorite of mine the Canadian cult film Cube. Sadly enough I never heard of this movie until after I`d seen the squeal Cube 2: Hypercube which I fell is on of the worst squeals ever, I mean really what was up with that film.
Anywho Cube is about a group of six(technically seven but the seventh one dies within the first five minutes without ever meeting the rest) people named Quentin,Worth,Holloway,Leaven,Rennes,and Kazan who find themselves trapped in gigantic cube with death traps,shifting rooms, and numbers for each room. After Rennes is killed by acid to the face the group learn that each room with a room with a trap has prime number, using this knowledge they make their way to the edge where Holloway tries to swing across a wall but a tremor from the shifting rooms causing her to fall but to be recuse by Quentin who later drops her to her death, likely due to early hostiles between the two. After realizing how bat-shit insane Quentin Worth is able drop him in cube while the last three make their way to the room which acts as a bridge to the outside.Unfortunately when they reach the bridge Quentin has caught up with them using plot convince where he kills Leaven and fatally wounds Worth and attempts to kill Kazan but is stop by Worth leading Quentin to be killed by the shifting room. In the end Worth dies as well and Kazan walks into a mysterious white light.
Really except for the special effect and some of the acting I can`t say anything bad about this movie. It has a great pace,atmosphere, it draws you in, and it`s smart. I also like to think there was something else to the cube instead of what vague explanation is used. Like maybe their all dead and the cube is limbo or something and they have to get to heaven, which would explain the bright white light at the end. Unfortunately the squeal and prequel kinda screw that idea but regardless this is a great movie that I recommend to everyone. This is WinterDeathPeach saying peace out.
