Dave, an artist who has yet to complete anything significant in his career, builds a fort in his living room out of pure frustration, only to wind up trapped by the fantastical pitfalls, booby traps, and critters of his own creation. Ignoring his warnings, Dave’s girlfriend Annie leads a band of oddball explorers on a rescue mission. Once inside, they find themselves trapped in an ever-changing supernatural world, threatened by booby traps and pursued by a bloodthirsty Minotaur.

Too much of everything
This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
The story-telling is good with flashbacks.The film is both funny and heartbreaking. You smile in a scene and get a soulcrushing revelation in the next.
This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
This is a film written by horror fans but not a horror film. It is stunningly designed and cleverly scripted. It is wonderfully odd and very enjoyable. It won the viewer vote at Dead by Dawn 2018 and deservedly so. It is perfect in every way.
Dave, an artist and kind of a loser who has never completed anything in his life, decide one day to build a fort in his house with all kinds of traps and such. Even though I give the director and it's writers acompliment for trying, this film is just a mess.
What may appear to be a simple-minded set-up at the start quickly turns into a sophisticated madcap roller-coaster ride. Did I really say that? "...sophisticated madcap roller-coaster ride"?The truth of the matter is that, if IMDb had a 20-star rating for innovation--that would be my rating of "Dave Made a Maze" because it's nothing short of extra-dimensional genius. James Urbaniak is always a pleasure to watch and he does a fine job in this production.You will never look at cardboard boxes the same way after this video--the same goes for a roll of Scotch-tape. See it ASAP!With all the trash that makes it to the big theater chains, this is a gem that should not be kicked aside. Search
Firstly, it's technically a "labyrinth", not a maze...Dave builds a labyrinth in his lounge room from cardboard boxes. His girlfriend comes home and finds a number of boxes put together to make what can best be described as a children's fort. However, it is in fact, a multi-dimensional creation.When people enter the first box, they actually enter a larger than life creation (a bit like a TARDIS where the space is bigger on the inside than the outside).The people who enter want to explore more, only to find that they are being tracked by the Minotaur and, dodging a series of booby traps inside the creation (which take out a few unlucky individuals), there is no blood when they die, just red streamers).This is a very quirky movie and an absolute delight to watch.Ignore the negative reviews and treat yourself to this indie movie and enjoy.
