If you like Dark City, A Clockwork Orange, or just horror in general, this is an excellent movie. It is a really interesting concept, and is full of suspense.

The creators of Cube really went out of their way to make a good horror movie while avoiding many problems other horror films have. For instance, this movie avoids the old trap of having a mad man chasing the good guys around in favor of a different approach. This helps Cube seem less cheesey than other horror flicks. Cube also has its share of gross out moments, but they are not too much. They help add to the movie's overall flow and suspense. So, if you like horror movies and are not afraid of independent films, check out Cube.

This is one of my faves, i have a well worn copy on VHS.

extremely well done considering the low low budget and production scale.

handful of actors, 1 stage, and a couple props. delightful movie.

other movies of similar interest:

eXistenZ
Memento
Thirteenth Floor
Dark City
Matrix (to a lesser degree)

Memento is on its way (Netflix is slow since the 11th - USPS got slowed quite a bit)

I have seen the rest except existenz. I hear it is quite odd.
