Movie Review: Now everything seems to be a maze in here. First, the beginning: Four college students -- Alex, Megan, PT and Christi -- on a field trip to learn more about a legend get lost in the woods one fine day.

Second, the storyline: The foursome stumble upon a mound that marks the burial site of a family that died on an earlier trail. Third the gory details of the mound: An Indian mound acting as resting place of a Native American family once cursed by yet another maze-like family. Next, the realisation of a scientist daddy's rich girl in the middle of nowhere that she loves the guy helping her on the trail. Fifth, the supposedly scary moments -- dark woods, blood oozing out of nowhere, pupil-less eyes, screaching sounds by night and of course, the inadvertent, over and over again, disturbing of the mound that unleashes trouble. What now? The students split and get lost in a furthur maze. So does that give us the bumps? Not really. Of course, it leaves you wondering when can you get out of the maze.
