Welcome to the Experiment. Growing up shooting short Super 8 movies in Toronto's High Park, Vincenzo Natali and Andre Bijelic exploded onto the international film scene with 1997's Cube, a sci-fi /horror film about six people trapped in a maze of death; its repercussions are still being felt cinematically today.
Cube: Inside the Making of a Cult Film Classic reveals the complete story of how these childhood friends brought a convincing, futuristic vision of hell to the big screen for less than $1 million in Canada, far from the Hollywood studio system. From the first spark of inspiration to the development of the script and its shooting, you'll follow the filmmakers through the triumphs, mathematics, mutinies and elations they experienced along the way. Also inside, director Natali opens up his Cube archives to share:
Storyboards
Character sketches
Behind the scenes photos
Unused Cube traps
Early script excerpts
and much more
