2.6 - Cube (1997) with Jesse Mendelsohn
HALLOWEEN 2024 SERIES, MOVIE 1 of 3
Andrew and special guest, writer and director Jesse Mendelsohn, navigate through the maze of the stunning and terrifying 1997 indie sci-fi horror classic, Cube. The directorial feature debut of legendary sci-fi/thriller conceptualist Vincenzo Natali, this one-of-a-kind chiller, shot with just one single set, creates multiple dimensions of terror, suspense, and enthralling character study…but there might just be no way to escape the greatest trap of all: ourselves!!
Andrew and Jesse have a ball (or cube) discussing the film's concepts and meaning, covering such topics as what exactly is so “scary” about the movie, the many allegorical meanings and implications of the story, Jesse and Andrew’s favorite traps and what they say about human beings, the violence of the movie, how Cube directly captures the American gun problem and other issues of the day, and much more.
IT’S TIME TO FIND THE MEANING OF THE MAZE!!!
