Ludos Labyrinthos
Best IDU Classic Film
Year of Release: 1967
Genre: Sci-Fi/Fantasy
Staring: Joachim Vaughn
Director: John Bergan
Languages: Originally in English, French dubbing (1971), German dubbing (1975), Spanish Dubbing (1975), Swedish Dubbing (1978)
Plot:
The movie opens on a dimly lit room. Four etherial figures, shrouded in darkness, are seated around a small table. The camera slowly pans over the table revealing an odd board, the silhouettes of cards, and brown, worn out dice. The first die is suddenly tossed. A five appears on the rolled dice and the screen goes dark.
A man bolts upright in an unfamiliar bed. He is overcome with a sense of urgency and fear as he realizes he is trapped in some sort of a maze. The nature of the maze changes with, unknown to him, every roll of the dice in the dark room. Slowly, he realizes that his purpose is to make it into the center of the maze, which is where the dark room, and win the game against the four etherial figures. Will he be able to, or will he fall victim and die in a truly horrific game.
Critical Reception:
Notoriously "trippy," Ludos Labyrinthos is regarded as one of the most mind-boggling movies in Maximusian History. While most people loved it for its relatable protagonist and ingenious plot, some critics found it to be "hard to follow to say the least." Overall, it is usually regarded as an excellent Sci-Fi/Fantasy and was given a 96% on the MCRI (Maximusian Cinematic Rating Index).
