Might be far-fetched, but this one reminded me of meiosis [1]. - XHalt (talk) 08:59, 25 March 2013 (UTC)Reply

It's more the opposite.--Dgbrt (talk) 21:35, 3 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

It reminds me of smoking DMT. 184.66.160.91 (talk) 01:44, 30 July 2013 (UTC) (please sign your comments with ~~~~)Reply

This reminds me of the "Cube" movie series. 208.124.118.63 21:31, 7 October 2013 (UTC)BKReply

Hellraiser makes more sense. 173.245.55.67 22:04, 14 April 2014 (UTC)BKReply
Yes there is a scene in Hellraiser that reminds of this, but the idea that the room resets afterwards to be ready for the next "client" is reminiscent of Cube. --Kynde (talk) 21:37, 23 July 2016 (UTC)Reply
What indicates that the room resets? In my imagination, the body parts keep hanging from the frame at the end. Also, the best Doctor Who episode ever also has a resetting trap: Wikipedia: Heaven Sent (Doctor Who) Signed: Fabian42, who is tired of being logged out almost every time he visits this Wiki. 162.158.90.108 (talk) 13:21, 28 June 2018 (UTC) (please sign your comments with ~~~~)Reply

There had to be one. It's probably just not known yet.Pacerier (talk) 18:06, 12 July 2015 (UTC)Reply

It feels like the third paragraph (origins of creative use of the frame) should really be in the Trivia section, rather than the explanation.141.101.76.16 17:02, 12 January 2018 (UTC)Reply

My assumption, upon reading this strip, is that it's a representation of mental health: the universe pushing into you and pull you apart at your seams. It's very evocative; it really seems to me that it represents an abstract feeling. Maplestrip (talk) 09:00, 28 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
