10 Most Chilling Games In Horror Movies

While mazes are generally light-hearted attractions designed for some harmless fun, they're understandably associated with fears and anxieties of becoming hopelessly lost and trapped within their twisting pathways and dead ends.

In the world of cinema, these maze-based nightmares can be found in the likes of The Shining, The Maze Runner, and the gleefully off-beat Dave Made A Maze. However, the movie maze we’d least like to find ourselves lost within is the shifting labyrinth in Cube.

A sci-fi horror favourite from filmmaker Vincenzo Natali in his feature debut, Cube sees a group of strangers find themselves trapped in a maze comprised of cube-shaped rooms.
