Small budgets sometimes mean big fun.

Remember bouncing from couch to couch over a carpet made of lava? When your blankets made a family room fort or a castle of wonder? Well, those feelings and memories are now a movie.

Gravitas Ventures will unleash DAVE MADE A MAZE in theaters and on VOD on August 18th, 2017. Directed by first-timer Bill Watterson, the flick imagines a fantasy world gone goofy when an artist decides to make a labyrinthine world of cardboard in his living room. Sounds innocent right? Wrong. Things get crazy when his maze of a world comes alive, leading to mysterious fun and real scares, including a bad-ass villain in the form of a hulking Minotaur.

DAVE MADE A MAZE stars a who’s-who of comics, including Nick Thune (Knocked Up), Meera Rohit Kumbhani (The Mindy Project), James Urbaniak (Difficult People), Stephanie Allynne (Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates) and the always hilarious, Rick Overton (Groundhog Day).

Stop-motion animation, puppetry, comedy, and a frigging Minotaur? Why not. Decide for yourself whether to step into DAVE MADE A MAZE with the trailer below. Bread crumbs not included.

Synopsis
DAVE MADE A MAZE tells the story of an unaccomplished and frustrated artist (Thune) who builds a cardboard box fort in his living room and winds up trapped with a gang of oddball explorers in a fantasy world of his own creation, threatened by booby traps and a bloodthirsty Minotaur.
