The Big Cube (1968)
8/10
If 60's Psychedelia Is What You're After. Then This Has It.

It's not high art, and yes, it does lack pace in parts, but makes up for it, in the whacky visual effects.

Lana Turner has given better performances for sure, but she is a pro here, amongst some, that are not, and gels the film together. She also is looking good.

The plot is not so bad either, although it has similarities to others, but then again, what was I expecting, it's not an expensive production, and is riding on the back of the counter culture.

Pamela Rogers is so bad, that I love her, as she takes the film to new lows when she's on screen. George Chakiris is suitably creepy, and it's no surprise that this was Karin Mossberg's last film.

I suspect the low rating is from disappointed Lana fans. So, why the high rating from me then? Because I adore these type of films, and they are a time capsule from a certain period of time, which will never be relived (and thank goodness, say some).
