A film with an interesting plot and full of twists... No particularly gruesome scenes but that's what I think makes a horror movie a success. Well-congenital plot performed really well by the actors. Great directing with a good photography... I couldn't take my eyes off the screen. I do not understand why its rating on this site was so low... But now I've got it up!

This one is a solid 7 for the different type of plot that this movie have .. For the first time I see a movie with a start, mid and end.. I wouldn't describe it as a thriller-horror movie rather than a drama.. Nevertheless it's a movie that will keep you awake and alert..

Brilliant move on the director's part to present all of the Muses as witches, inherently evil and capable of heinous acts. But why do this? Why take what is classically considered good and invert the idea so completely? There would be only one reason: A commentary on the lack of effect poetry has actually had on our world, though at times the same has been considered our very salvation, and sometimes even a weapon of martial combat--and certainly a tool of shame in Gaelic culture as we remember the idea of 'losing face.' In any case, whether it was meant or not, the viewer is now left with the burning question: If we have no muses anymore--or if they were always witches intent upon harm of humanity-- then where lies our salvation? Money? Fame? Power? Only the most thankful of us will turn from those vain diversions, and even the vanity of anthropocentric poetry (as opposed to theocentric), to the One who came to destroy Death, witchcraft, hatred, and every other evil of Adam so that we can, if we will, be recreated and become that which we were always meant to be--forever.

English professor Samuel Solomon (Elliot Cowan) has spent a year in depression after a student he was having a secret affair with committed suicide in his apartment. He is rocked from his lethargy when he begins having dreams of a ritualistic murder for a week and then finds out it really happened on the news. He travels to mansion where the murder happened and runs into Rachel (Ana Ularu), an Eastern European woman who also had the same dream. With the help of his colleague Susan (Franka Potente), Samuel discovers a group that worshiped a coven of witches called the "Seven Ladies" and he goes to seek out the last remaining member of that group. I've been a fan of Spanish director Jaume Balaguero ever since seeing THE NAMELESS (1999) years ago. That Ramsey Campbell adaptation was bleaker than bleak, establishing a constant thread of nihilism that flows throughout Balaguero's subsequent work (DARKNESS, FRAGILE, REC, and SLEEP TIGHT). The only misfires for me have been his REC sequels (he co-directed part 2 and handled part 4 on his own), which seemed to have no idea where to take things. This is a return to form after the disappointing REC 4, but might actually be guilty of having too much plot. Balaguero, who co-wrote this with Fernando Navarro and José Carlos Somoza, seems to have been heavily influenced by Dario Argento. Not in terms of style, but in terms of plot dynamics as Solomon's quest is similar to what David Hemmings had in DEEP RED (1975) and the "Seven Ladies" definitely echo Argento's "Three Mothers" coven. The first hour builds the mystery well, but there is throws way too much into the mix in the mid-section. Yes, I'm complaining a horror film has too much plot (the mixing in of classic lit authors element really could have been excised). Cowan is quite good in the lead and Ularu is really good. Also, Joanne Whalley is excellent in her first feature in years as one of the witches and Christopher Lloyd (!!) show up in a few scenes as a dying old man. Definitely worth seeing, just make sure you have a notepad ready to suss it all out.

Why people dont appreciate good films anymore??? It's an amazing clever story, nice artistic filming and scary enough but beautiful at the same time. Basically there are no horrors I didn't see, but nevertheless I really liked it! Well done!Don't go by reviews,check it out by yourself!

A literature professor and writer is involved with one of his students. After spending an afternoon together she slits her wrists. A year later he's still a wreck and has nightmares about some woman killed in a ritual. Suddenly the news show a woman killed just how he dreams it. His editor convinces him to investigate. He breaks into the house where the woman was killed and finds a mysterious picture of some men. He also runs into a girl who is also there investigating. They find a hidden door and steal some eggs-shaped lament configuration. They escape before the police grab them. She's a *. Her boss is keeping her passport until she pays him money back. She joins forces with the writer to research the dead woman and this picture of the men. The editor also helps. They discover the identity of the men, all are dead but one. They visit him. He talks about words, poerty and 7 (?) evil "muses." The muses eventually make contact with the writer--they want their egg-thing back. We learn that the girl actually knew the dead woman and also knows about these muses. There's something of a revelation. Somehow they end up in psychiatric hospital, abandoned of course, where they'll have to face the muses. Here the story connects with the girl who commits suicide in the into and we learn what the men from the photo where up to. There's another revelation of sorts. Muse is a long, slow, duller Euro multi-government-financed horror thriller directed with little inspiration. The story isn't bad but director Jaime Belaguero doesn't know what to do with the material. Elliot Cowan's tired acting and poor voice recording doesn't help a bit. Ana Ularu is adorable and does her best but she can't carry the movie all by herself. There's the occasional horror every half an hour or so, but there's no serious attempt to frighten the audience or add some atmosphere, which shouldn't have been too difficult. The exteriors of the psych hospital location for instance look spectacular. At least there some nudity at the beginning. The movie as a whole, as most horror movies has an overly dark and lifeless tone. Music is also atrocious, nothing but melodramatic piano that's mostly out of place. The story tries to make a big deal about poetry, words, literature, but that doesn't add any depth. Overall Muse is a missed opportunity and quite a failure.

If someone had compared "mientras duermes" with bergman (the end), "musa" is a mix of influences, giallo or b movies.... but the most terrifying question is what the heck is doing our christopher lloyd here? when zemeckis is gonna do something about? back to the future part iv now!!!!!!!!!!!!

My first niggle is, as other reviewers have pointed out, that this is a supernatural thriller, not horror. Not a bad thing at all, IMO, but a smidge irritating that the genre is miscategorized. It was good, but really could've used another half hour to flesh out, so to speak, and be what it should've been and deserved to be. I'll be looking for longer cuts on DVD. The almost non-existent and very rushed bonding of the two leads needed more development to really be effective. Really, I would love a sequel, but only if given more character and story development. There's that word again: development. Too hasty - didn't really sink its hooks into me like it could have and should have. Visually - wonderful. Very well done. Actors & acting were, to me, perfect.

This movie is really terrible. Messy plot, bad actors, not scary at all. Do yourself a favor, switch channel!
