"Blood Labyrinth" is a suspenseful film directed by the Coen brothers and starring Frances McDormand and Dan Hadaia. The film tells the story of a boss who became furious when he learned that his wife was having an affair with his subordinates. He hired a killer to try to kill them, but due to the murderer's conspiracy, a serial murder event was triggered. The film premiered at the Toronto Film Festival in Canada on September 7, 1984, and was released in the United States on January 18, 1985.
The Coen brothers' debut, despite a low budget and a short filming cycle ($800,000, two months), shows an astonishing use of technology. Filled with dark humorous brushstrokes and twisty plot settings, it forms a typical Cohen style.
The Coen brothers became famous with this film, and then continued to make excellent works. "Murder Green Toe", "Frozen", "Barton Fink" and so on are all well-known masterpieces, and finally with a "No Country for Old Men", the brothers won the first place together. The 80 best film, best director and best screenwriter in the Oscars. It can be said that the daughter-in-law has become a mother-in-law for many years. Compared with the two who won the Oscar for their debut, the Coen brothers are late bloomers, but along the way, they have been solid step by step. With strong creative desire and enthusiasm. Now they are also a golden sign in Hollywood.
