Electronic Labyrinth THX 1138:4EB was a short movie directed by George Lucas in 1967 while he attended the University of Southern California. The movie exists in 16mm reference print, videocassette with a run time of 15 minutes, and on THX 1138 Special Edition DVD. The movie was later remade as the feature THX 1138. Subterranean accessways and parking garages at the Los Angeles International Airport were used as the set.

USC sums up the movie as "A nightmare impression of a world in which a man is trying to escape a computerized world which constantly tracks his movements."
