Wow, you guys are really harsh. I've seen a lot of horror films in my time and this is not the best but it is definitely not the worst. What were you guys looking for? This is clearly a small budget indie film and you're tearing it apart like it's a Hollywood blockbuster. I mean the first two-thirds are pretty slow but the ending wasn't horrible, it really made up for what we were experiencing while we were in the maze. I thought that following the killer was more inventive then ending it with the survivor just coming out of the maze. If you want a cheap thrill with your girlfriend that won't make her throw up by the end then this is your movie. I give it 5 stars for trying.

Not the Worst
Popcorn
I watched from dvd with Russian dubbing :) It was boring a little bit, but i didn't hate. It was just bad movie.
The movie experience was as withered as the corn field in the movie...
Well, the cover for "The Maze" does look interesting, but the movie was anything but interesting. It was basically a snooze-fest from start to end, because nothing much did happen.
The movie is about a group of young people who go into a withered corn field to play tag, but they are not alone there. A killer is stalking the corn field, eager to snuff out their lives.
The outlay of the story does seem fair enough, but it just didn't really work out in any way. The corn field idea, as great as that is, have been used a bit too much to have the same scary effect anymore. And the killer, well, a guy in a red sweater with the hood worn up so no one can see his face, well that isn't particularly scary. And the way people were killed were fairly boring - yeah, I said boring. As with the last decade's gory slasher-fest and inventive ways of killing people in movies, the ways used in "The Maze" was just boring and unimaginative in comparison.
The one bright spot to this movie was the twist towards the ending of the movie. That was actually worth suffering through the first three-quarters of the movie for. I enjoyed that twist and idea on the storyline.
For a slasher movie, then "The Maze" is well below standards of what you would expect from a movie of this category in this day and age.
