The Maze

After seeing some of the reviews I wasn't sure if I wanted to see this film but I got it anyway and watched it with my friends. Yes it had its fair share of cheesy acting, slow pacing, and low budget feel but I have to agree with some of the other reviewers. This movie was obviously made to be a low budget film and I found most of the reviews on here are to harsh. I especially enjoyed the the twist in the story.

Overall, I would say its worth watching, just don't expect a multi million dollar film. Or even a million dollar film. However if you do make sure it is in the right setting, with a group of friends or people that can enjoy a good low budget horror film.

I really wanted to give this movie a chance, but wow what a snooze fest. The acting ranges from passable to downright right bad. The dialogue is even worse. What is it with movies trying to make their final girl seem tough but only succeeding at having her come off as a stuck up witch? Perhaps the worst part is when you think the movies over, it drags on for another half hour. The movie honestly spends more time focusing on the cops in the police station than the killer hunting people in a maze. The only good thing going for the movie is a unique twist at the end, but it takes so long to get there and requires a lot of dumb decisions/plot conveniences in the final 10 minutes to make it happen that it does nothing to save this horrible movie.

I watched this movie on Halloween with some friends in a dark room and you know it was actually fun. It is definitely a movie to watch as a group. It was your normal scares with loud music and things jumping out but that is why we decided to watch it in the first place. Setting it in a corn maze was interesting and I really liked the Alice in Wonderland motif throughout the film. I was a little confused at the beginning of the film, but then as it went on I started to get in to it and I let my early misgivings go and I enjoyed myself. If you go into this movie expecting something completely different then what you've ever seen in a horror movie before then you will be disappointed. If you want a fun scare that you don't have to think about then give it a chance and I think you will find you enjoyed yourself.

This movie is a tough one to rate, as the majority of it is quite very mediocre. The acting from almost all the characters was terrible, the writing wasn't too bad but it wasn't anything special, and the directing most of the time seemed nothing more than OK. Although, everything having to do with the killer was spot on. A brutal, smart, quick killer that doesn't take any risks or chances and pounces as soon as he gets the chance, probably the best slasher villain in recent horror films. The red coat outfit was awesome and the weapon of choice was simple. The first half of the movie was pretty boring other than his scenes while the second half of the movie is much better and does a good job of redeeming itself. The twist with the killer was actually great and very unexpected. His character was all-around the best part of this film. Not to mention the acting of the killer was absolutely fantastic, I look forward to hopefully seeing him in films in the future. Although the first half isn't very good (again, other than any scenes involving the killer), I do highly recommend this film to horror movie fans, especially indie and slasher fans.

Once again one of the actors from the film must be reviewing his own movie. I can guess which one. Why not a ten star review? Because it was so horrifically bad even the person trying to skew the numbers to try to sucker ANYONE into watching this trash couldn't even bring himself to give it ten stars. Add this to the list of low budget movies I couldn't even bring myself to finish watching. If the producers of this waste of time and money have any shame they will recall and burn every copy, send the ashes off into space, then issue a public apology for believing anyone would be so stupid as to actually want to watch this worthless piece of garbage. I could make a better movie utilizing my camera phone and a bunch of 5 year old children as cast AND crew. Premise is entirely unbelievable anyway, as anyone who has ever been into a corn maze knows all you have to do to get out is pick a direction and start walking. Its CORN for God's sake, not an adamantium force-field. Unfortunately people from Hollywood actually ARE this stupid, so they expect the general public to be as well. If you have any sense, you'll skip this worthless piece of trash. If you don't have any sense, skip it anyway. There are plenty of better things to do with your time, like stabbing yourself in the eye with a fork.
