Review Summary
CUBE ZERO was written and directed by Ernie Barbarash in 2004.

Eric Wynn and Dodd are in charge of the monitoring of a vast complex composed of hundreds of rooms shaped as cubes and filled with deadly traps. Wynn and Dodd have been told that the people who are wandering through these cubical rooms are prisoners sentenced to death who agreed to be subjected to various tests but it seems that, until now, nobody found the exit of the complex.

One day, Wynn glances through the file of Cassandra Rains, a young woman who's just been laid down in one of the rooms. He notices that she didn't signed the form empowering the authorities to put her into the Cube. Wynn also identifies her as one of the leading figures of an anti-governmental movement. Could it be that that the government locks into this complex all those who don't agree with its politics ? In order to save Cassandra Rains, Wynn enters the Cube with the intention of finding her and bringing her to the nearest exit. Unfortunately, in the control station, Jax and his assistants spare no effort to cumulate the most vicious traps in front of them.
