7 Horror Sci-Fi Films To Watch Before Alien Covenant
3. Cube
The second film by Vincenzo Natali on this list, Cube tells the story of a group of strangers who awaken in a mysterious room containing hatches on each wall, ceiling and floor. The group soon realises that each hatch leads to another identical room in a cube-like structure, and that many of the rooms are fitted with deadly traps.
Playing out like Saw with a uniquely sci-fi slant, Cube is a fun puzzle to try and solve despite the fact that it's basically unsolvable; but that's the point. Some speculate that the cube is supposed to symbolise the illogical nature of life and death, while others point to it as an metaphor for religion; but whatever the cube represents to you, it's an interesting ride to take.
If you're into The Twilight Zone, Black Mirror or any other high-concept sci-fi, this might be a movie worth your time.
