Reminds me of the film The Room. You watch that thing and assume it cost $50 to make, and find out it cost over $6 million, and used tons of really hi-tech special effects. You'd never know though. I really don't know where these people get money like this to just dump away.

LOL. The Room just reminded me of The Cube... god that movie was awful.

Hey I loved Cube.  It actually had natural dialogue and the scenes were actually related to each other.  The Room was random people saying random things in a random order.  "Oh it's just breast cancer, I'll be fine."  They never mention it again for the whole movie.

Cube 2 and Cube Zero were horrible bastardizations of the original though.
