Cube (1997) | Friday Night Fright Night — Season 3, Episode 4

But let's, let's get started.

Let's, Lee, take it away with the directors and writers and cast and all the good stuff.

Yeah.

So Cube, uh, directed in 1997 by Vincenzo Natali, which has like an Italian name, and GC-

Yeah

... and I ha- both have Italian names, so he's one of our guys, I suppose.

But, uh, what, what I found interesting was that this is a Canadian movie, for those who didn't know.

Um, but he was born in Michigan, USA, so he's a American director that, you know, went to Canada and directed this movie.

Um, he's also known for a few movies.

Some of you might know him from In the Tall Grass, which was a Netflix movie that was a adaptation of a Stephen King and Joe Hill story, Joe Hill being his son.

That came out back in, uh, 2019.

So his biggest releases is that, and I would say, um, Splice, which is, um, a movie that I personally saw in theaters back when it came out in 2009 with Adrien Brody.

I don't know if you guys remember that one.

And he also directed a movie that I'm not familiar with, but it's coming and it's gonna be included in the Cube 4K that's coming out soon, a movie called Cypher, um, with, I believe Lucy Liu is in that one.

But I have not seen that one, so I can't speak for it.

But yeah, those are his first, his four main movies as director.

And, um, so our cast is very small, so it should be, uh, this should be quick and breezy.

We have, um, Laverne, and she's played by Nicole DeBoer.

Um, we have Maurice Dean Wint.

He's Quentin, the villain.

And then you got David Hewlett, which is Worth.

And we have Nicky Guadagni.

She's Holloway.

Then you got, um, Andrew Miller playing Kazan.

Uh, then you have the introduction, the guy that we're gonna talk about now, the, the first guy you see in this movie, he's only in it for a few minutes, which is Julian Richings, and he plays Alderson.
