Alright. I'm bored, so I figure I would go into (further) detail about how I would've executed a fairly recent maze. That maze is Dead Exposure 2. I feel like it could've connected a bit better with the original, and done better at fitting the '80s aesthetic (yes it technically took place in 1982 but considering they were playing songs from the 2010s out front). Anyways, here's my kinda detailed attempt at a re-imagining:
DEAD EXPOSURE: RED PLAGUE
In 1987, Emily Duncan (nee McPherson) is visiting Munich, West Germany on her honeymoon across Western Europe. Unfortunately, in response to demands to tear down the Berlin Wall, a Soviet spy releases a biohazard that turns the population into angry, aggressive zombies. With the flash of her camera her only source of light, Emily captures the last horrific moments of her honeymoon and life on camera, and you are with her every step of the way.
0--Photo album
The location is still sprung tent 1, but the facade is a black box with photos of Emily and her husband Greg's wedding and honeymoon, along with a newspaper clipping simply captioned "tear down this wall." Three songs play in loop: 99 Luftballoons by Nena, Holiday in the Sun by Sex Pistols, and Photograph by Def Leppard.
1--Hotel room
You enter into a standard budget hotel room, but the lights are out and on the bed, Emily sits, cowering from the moaning noises outside. She panics incoherently, something about biowarfare, pleading for her husband Greg. A camera sits on a nightstand next to the bed.
(From here, it's basically the same as first...blacklight sets illuminated by strobes that go off in sync to the sound of a camera clicking.)
2--Alley
3--Bookstore
4--Cafe
5--Subway station
6--Subway tunnel
7--Sewer
8--Street
Coming out onto a street, you are surrounded by a swarm of zombies. Most are statues, a few of them are actors.
9--Spy
You turn into another alley, and discover the source of the outbreak: a scrim shows a spy in a in the distance with an open briefcase (think the cover of Megadeth's "Peace Sells...But Who's Buying?"). Another zombie pops out from behind a trash can.
10--Hotel room redux
Back in the hotel room, a zombified Greg has broken in and devours Emily's now-dead body, occasionally stopping to lunge at guests. A GSG 9 (German version of SWAT) member pops out of closet and shoots at Greg, trying to restore order. The outbreak has been contained to Munich, hopefully it never breaks out somehow...
