Summary: Malpertuis is a labyrinth where characters issued from the Greek mythology are made prisoners by Cassavius (Orson Welles). He manages to keep them (as well as his nephew and niece) as prisoners even after his death, through a binding testament. As the nephew (played by Mathieu Carrière) unravels the mystery, we find out he cannot escape the house because Malpertuis is far more significant than we were led to believe. (imdb)

An eccentric surreal horror/mystery (with some of bits of lame humor) based on a novel. It takes the story of an overbearing patriarchal figure whose last will compels his family and associates to remain in his spooky mansion after his death, and weaves in assorted references to Greek mythology. It's a little hokey but also quite spellbinding in its strangeness, and packs a lot of surprises in its ending. Kumel has yet to "wow" me, but I'm finding him pretty entertaining so far.
