20 Horror Franchises That NEED To Come Back

20. Cube

Cube is one of the smartest and most deliriously entertaining horror films of the 1990s, making the most of its simple premise - what if a group of random strangers woke up in a maze of interconnected cubed rooms, many of which are rigged with deadly traps?

A middlingly received sequel, prequel, and Japanese remake followed in 2002, 2004, and 2021 respectively, though various other attempts to shock the franchise back to life have proven fruitless so far.

In 2011 Lionsgate began assembling Cube 3D which never came to pass, and then in 2015 they were said to be developing a reboot called Cubed, which again went nowhere. 

As of 2022, the studio was said to still be taking pitches on a new movie.

The concept of Cube is so easily marketable to the masses that it's frankly astonishing somebody hasn't taken another crack at it. 

How hard can it possibly be to reimagine Cube for modern sensibilities with some gnarly new traps?
