Cube (1997) | Friday Night Fright Night — Season 3, Episode 4
Welcome back to Friday Night Fright Night!
For Season 3, Episode 4, GC and Lee enter the mysterious and deadly world of CUBE (1997).
Directed by Vincenzo Natali, Cube follows six strangers who awaken inside a massive maze of interconnected rooms with no idea how they got there or why they've been chosen. Some rooms are safe. Others are filled with deadly traps.
But as the group desperately searches for an exit, the greatest threat may not be the Cube itself.
In this episode, we break down the characters, our favorite traps, the mathematics behind the Cube, the movie's low-budget production, behind-the-scenes fun facts, the growing paranoia within the group, and the deeper meaning behind one of the most unique sci-fi horror films of the 1990s.
We also discuss the movie's mysterious ending, whether anyone is actually controlling the Cube, our Letterboxd ratings, movie recommendations, and whether Cube still holds up nearly 30 years later.
⚠️ This episode contains spoilers for Cube (1997).
What do you think the Cube really is? And if you woke up inside it... would you make it out alive?
Episodes are also available on YOUTUBE @Facethemovies channel.

Mimic (1997): The del Toro Movie That Got Away. S3E3
Guillermo del Toro disowned Mimic (1997) — and the behind-the-scenes story is as gripping as the film. GC (Face the Movies) and Lee (Media Whiplash) descend into the New York subway to dissect del Toro's troubled English-language debut: genetically engineered insects that evolved to mimic humans, the Weinstein interference that stripped del Toro of final cut, and the 2011 Director's Cut that tried to set things right.
We dig into the creature design, Mira Sorvino's performance, del Toro's visual signature, the science of the Judas Breed, and what this painful production ultimately did for his career. Full spoilers throughout.
