    Storyline

    • Trivia
      The movie initially utilized scrap cardboard from an American Apparel factory in LA. The producer thought they had more than enough to last the full length of the shoot. When they ran out three weeks later they found that the company was no longer willing to give their scrap away. Luckily, they were shooting next to Solar City, which was willing to let the crew dumpster dive for all of the cardboard they needed. The vast majority of the cardboard was returned to those same dumpsters for recycling. The production did not pay for any cardboard.
    • Quotes

      Dave: I wasn't striving for anything. I just wanted to make something. And I can't sit on my couch and watch t.v. or think that the internet is going to inspire me because I'm fucking thirty years old. And my parents are still giving me money. And I bore the shit out of them. And I work jobs that I hate that I have to beg to get. Do you know what it means to be broke? It means that you are broken. That you don't work.

    Wildly Imaginative
    I really enjoyed the original concept and seemingly limitless imagination of this film. The maze is so large and vast, and a lot of careful planning, time and care went into developing it. It seems like each and every room the characters explored, something new and wonderful would occur. B-team cast does an overall good enough job for a story like this, and there are surprisingly few cringey moments among many great ones. A mature comedy for those young at heart.
