Is The Deep House a Maze movie ?

I was wondering if this movie is a maze movie or not. Let’s discuss as I tell you a bit about the movie. A social media star and his girlfriend, who specialize in urban explorations go to the bottom of a lake in a secluded forest in France. The scuba dive is filmed for their channel as they are hoping for big views. At the bottom of the lake is an intact house that permanently flooded into the lake. Their exploration of the preserved rooms feels like a maze and is similar to movies I consider maze movies (Thir13een Ghosts, Relic, Grave Encounters). But, in all of those similar movies a character mentions that the environment they are in is like a maze. You never hear the word in this movie. That’s the rub.

The movie. Well they find some things you might not want to find in a house at a bottom of a lake. Things get dicey and there is a race to escape. Unfortunately, despite the nice concept, the movie is a bit slow and boring. So is this a maze movie ????

I give it a 5.1/10.

Witching and Bitching (2013) Movie Review

Also known as Las brujas de Zugarramurdi, you know, because the movie is in Spanish. I really liked the first act of the film where we have a robbery and an escape. It is a fun robbery as far as robberies go. The chase eventually takes us to a small village in wooded area where our characters meet the witches. Now our characters aren’t escaping the police, they need to escape from becoming dinner ! Although we do have some typical looking witches - old and wrinkly, we do get a young beautiful witch that tempts a few of the robbers. Overall it is a fun movie that is worth a watch if you catch it on tv, but I would not seek it out. In the last section of the movie, when the story breaks apart a bit IMO, we get our characters trying to escape by using underground tunnels that resemble a maze. Do they escape ? Things get weird, I know that.

I give it a 6/10. Check out the trailer:
