==Ratings==<br />
===[http://www.mpaa.org/film-ratings/ MPAA Ratings]===<br />
<!--E.G., "Rated: R (Violence, Nudity, Language....)" --><br />
* Rated: (not rated)(probably equivalent of an R for Violence, Adult Content, Nudity, etc.)<br />
<br />
===Tentacle Ratings===<br />
A rough [[Tentacle Ratings|measure]] of how "Lovecraftian" the work is:<br />
* S____ (One Tentacle: Debateably Lovecraftian; has almost no direct connection to Lovecraft's work)<br />
<br />
I've never seen this, but some reviewers have mentioned feeling this film is reminiscent of Lovecraft's fiction, Carpenter's ''[[The Thing (1984 film)]]'', and Argento's ''[[The Three Mothers trilogy (1977 franchise)]]''.<br />
<br />
''Note: This rating is not intended as a measure of quality, merely of how closely related to Lovecraftian "Weird" fiction the work is.''<br />

* Giovanni Susina at At The Mansion of Madness, ([http://atthemansionofmadness.blogspot.com/2012/12/the-spider-labyrinth-1988.html link]) - "...Recommended for the patient horror fan with a taste for Argento and Lovecraft influenced filmmaking with hopes to be proven wrong in their belief that the late '80s were a bland time for Italian horror...."<br />

===Keeper Notes===<br />
<!-- Optional. Notes to Keepers on using this for film for scenario ideas. Heresies and Controversies: this is also a good place to include non-canon and controversial aspects of the film's mythos. Suggested Alternative Theories include: Derleth's elemental scheme; pseudo-science interpretation; "fanon" interpretations; unofficial humorous or eccentric versions; identification with "Real Life" mythological, religious, folklore, natural, and historical phenomena; rumor and speculation contribute some flexibility and ambiguity to the mythos. * Alternative_theory.
