I need the name of a Sci-Fi movie?!


Question: A few months ago i saw the end of a movie, i believe it was on the sci fi network, but im not sure about that. anyway in this movie these people were traped in some kind of cube that had different doors and ways out. through every door though was an identical looking room to the one they just left, but the "laws" (i guess is the right way to put it) of each room were different then the previous. people would just keep going from room to room trying to find their way out. so basicly my question is "does this sound familiar to anybody? and if so, do you know the name of this movie?" i would like to see the entire movie but i cant seem to find any thing on the internet about it. any help would be great. thanks

Actually, there is a series of "Cube" films. I'll be back with the information because it might not have been the first one.

From Wikipedia:
The Cube trilogy is comprised of three Canadian science fiction/horror films directed by Vincenzo Natali, Andrzej Sekula and Ernie Barbarash, respectively.
Each film is based on the same premise: There is a gigantic, mechanical, cube-shaped structure (the purpose and origin of which is almost completely unknown) that is made up of lots of smaller cube-shaped rooms. Each of these rooms has six doors, one on each wall and one on the ceiling and one on the floor, which lead into adjacent, identical rooms. Some of these rooms are safe, while others are equipped with booby traps such as flamethrowers and razorwire that kill a person who enters the room. In some cases, it is possible to detect a trap by throwing a boot into the room first.
In each case, a group of strangers wake up in this mysterious structure, with no knowledge of how they got there or why they are there. In order to escape from the prison, they must band together and use their combined skills and talents to avoid the traps and navigate out of the maze while also trying to solve the mystery of what the cube is and why they are in it. However, the pressure of being in the cube usually drives one of the characters insane, and they start killing the others.

"Cube Zero" was slightly different from the original two movies in that it also deals with some people on the outside of the cube whose job it is to control the cube and oversee those within. It also attempts to answer some of the questions of the series.

Cube (1997)
The first movie follows a group of seven frightened strangers who find themselves trapped in a bizarre maze of cube-shaped rooms, with no memory of how they arrived there. Searching for a way out, they soon discover that many rooms contain lethal booby-traps, whilst others are safe. Initially the prisoners band together in attempt to escape, however as their stay becomes longer the prisoners begin to turn on each other as the stress of their imprisonment takes hold. Despite the film's low budget, it achieved moderate commercial success and has developed a cult following due to its surreal, Kafkaesque setting.

Cube 2: Hypercube (2002)
This film is a departure from the original. The dusky, dingy rooms of the first film are replaced with high-tech, brightly-lit rooms, and the conventional technology of the original traps are replaced with ultra-tech threats based on abstract mathematics. A new group of prisoners quickly discover that, unlike the original Cube, the rooms in their prison appear to shift instantaneously. They realize they are inside a functioning tesseract in which gravity, space and time are distorted. This time the prisoners each have a connection to the cube's suggested creator.

Cube Zero (2004)
This is a prequel to "Cube". Unlike the first two movies, which were limited to the prisoners' point of view, the film follows two characters, Eric Wynn and Dodd, who are bureaucrat/technicians observing the prisoners. Wynn finds himself caring about the fate of Cassandra Rains, a woman in the Cube, and decides to risk his job and his life to help her try to escape.

"Cube"

Edit: I know, I know, it's an alarmingly creative name, isn't it? Still, it's a cool movie and the sequel is pretty good too. Enjoy!

Cube

I just watched that movie recently, fricking awesome. bedroommedia has it, and like the other people said, it's called Cube.

Yes. It's called CUBE. There were like 3 or 4 of them though so go to imdb.com and find out which one you were watching.

its the cube, you can find the info about it here http://imdb.com/title/tt0123755/. I think there was also a sequel called cube 2? though i could be wrong. Great movie the first one.. Ive seen it around at the video store and the shops too. :)

Sounds like "Cube" (Canadian, 1999). Compare "THX 1138" ( Geo. Lucas, before LucasFilms and the starwars crap, 1971) with the Cube movie. In fact, THX 1138, with Robert Duvall, stays in one room and shows what Lucas could have been.

Funny, but both genre were indies and faced obstacles finding distributors.
