Skate or Die, dudes! This time we watched the 1988 cult classic skateboarding adventure movie, Gleaming the Cube starring Christian Slater! That's right, it's time to take a trip to 1980s California to solve a murder and do some shredding along the way.
This is one of those films that takes a bizarre concept and runs with it without any sort of wink and nod towards the audience, which is something the decade was known for. Therefore you get a 1980s skateboarding movie with enough drama and suspense to shake a stick at. One thing I can say with 100% certainty is that you will never see another movie like Gleaming the Cube in your life. And considering this is the 1980s, that is saying something.
Of course it isn't perfect, but it is an overall unique and fun movie to watch. Check out our full opinions in the episode above.
