New Flix: Dave Made a Maze

Between all sorts of crazy Horror and Action Films, there's this quirky little gem...
After a guy's girlfriend is gone on business all weekend, she comes home to find, well, guess.
She calls his friend over to help as Dave is somehow lost in the Maze and won't let them destroy it.
Their solution- go into the Maze, along with a Documentarian, some friends and 2 Hostel Guests.
The Maze turns out to be full of all sorts of strange wonders and dangers!
What strange secret lies in the Maze?
Will they make it out?  What silly way is there to escape?

To find out, watch the Film.
Far better than Dark Harvest 2: The Maize.  No, that isn't my bar.  This is also the best Film to feature John Hennigan/Nitro/Morrison/Mundo/Impact.  To be fair, his other work featured here was by The Asylum, so another low bar.  This Film is fun, whimsical and inventive.  It takes a silly idea, 'lamp shades' how silly it is and then just runs with it.  They don't pretend that this makes sense.  They don't pretend that this is logical.  The Film just has fun with a silly, wacky premise.  Supposedly most of the Set Material (that being Cardboard) was just left out behind a Store.  Could you imagine if a Marvel Film did that?  Your love of this Film will rely pretty much solely on your ability to accept/like the silly premise.  It is a bit of a Hipster Film, but don't let that label scare you away like this is by the Duplass Brothers.  It is silly.  It is quirky.  If you don't like it, that's fine.  I had a fun time with it, so I hope you enjoy it as much as these two...
A little uneven at times, but kudos for running with the strange idea.  It is just silly enough to work!
