The Maze

Really a simple story. Not very well acted. Not really good.

Pretty much a waste of time and I don't even get why movies like this come up on my recommended list. The hell is going on? Like they think I like to watch crap movies or something with my free time.

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.

I'm a huge fan of low budge horrors and found this one didn't disappoint. It's been a while since I have seen a horror film take place in a corn maze (probably due to logistical problems with the story as some have mentioned. One would think you could just run in any single direction and eventually be out but that is beside the point). For being a low budget film I really enjoyed the music. Thats the one thing that seemed superior to other horror movies with low budgets. Most everything else was on par with what I expected.

If you like low budget horrors then you won't be disappointed. If you have issues with low budget films then you probably wont enjoy this film (as you can see from some of the other reviews). Overall I would probably give it a 4.5 to 5 except that I enjoyed the music so much that it bumped it up to a 6.

What is it with corn fields? Seems most horrors these days are based in one. If I ever see a corn field when driving, I'm gonna put my foot down to 90mph, and belt past it. Sod the speed limit!!

So, what is this like? Well, these people are bored, and 'break in' to a maze. When I say break in, I mean they just walk into the maze. There is no gate etc. The killings when they start are pretty basic, even a throat slit looks like I just brushed my knife of over a peel of an orange, but not pierced it.

Yep, they all split up (its a game, not because they're scared), and then they get attacked by a psycho that runs faster than The Bolt. And of course, the good old 'I can't go on as I've hurt my foot' springs up.

Was it by falling from a great height? Maybe the person got knifed, shot or other major injury? Nope, by tripping over a body.

Anyhoo, I did watch to the end, and was a bit of a different ending. Plus the car ride chat was okay, but apart from that....

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.
