Have You Seen: Cube (1997)
from Eye of the Storm Movie Podcast · host Daniel Gawron
In our series "Have You Seen?" we discuss a movie that some of us know well and others have just now seen for the first time. Our conversation focuses on the experience of someone watching the movie for the first time today and their reaction.This week we revisit Cube from 1997, a science fiction horror film directed by Vincenzo Natali and starring Nicole de Boer, David Hewlett and Julian Richings, about seven individuals trapped in a bizarre and deadly labyrinth of cube-shaped rooms.We talk about the nostalgia some of us have for Cube, how when you discover a movie can impact how you view it, how the Cube is an allegory for something but we're not sure what, and how Cube's sequels have failed to appeal to audiences despite trying to expand the scope and lore of the franchise.Check out the video version here:https://youtu.be/qihqDRfE1rk
