Rubber Directed by: Quentin Dupieux Written by: Quentin Dupieux Starring: Stephen Spinella, Roxane Mesquida, Jack Plotnick and Wings Hauser Rubber is one of the most unique movies I have ever seen, a film that on the surface looks simple and dull but the final product has characters, layers, and laughter. We follow a rubber tire that kills anything in its path by telekinetically blowing it up. Sound ridiculous? In the first five minutes the point is made clear with a monologue from Lieutenant Chad (Stephen Spinella) who comes out of the trunk of a car talking about why certain events happen or don't happen in a select few movies. He refers to Steven Spielberg's E.T.: Extra Terrestrial and Tobe Hooper's The Texas Chainsaw Massacre among other films. The scene basically conveys that the film you are about to see is extremely self aware and wacky for reasons unexplained.
