Claudio Carvalho The popular literature professor Samuel Solomon (Elliot Cowan) is a great friend of Professor Susan Gilard (Franka Potente) in the university and is secretly in love with Beatriz (Manuela Vellés), who is one of his students. After making love at Samuel´s home, Beatriz asks Samuel to promise that he will love her forever. Then she goes to the bathroom and commits suicide. One year later, Samuel is no longer teaching and has recurring nightmares with a woman that is brutally murdered. Out of the blue, he learns that a woman called Lidia Garetti (Leonor Watling) was found brutally murdered at home and he realizes that she is the woman of his nightmares. He decides to sneak into the crime scene to investigate and he stumbles upon a young woman, Rachel (Ana Ularu), who claims to have the same nightmare. They snoop around and Samuel finds an oval object hidden in a water tank and a photograph hidden in a photo-frame. However the police arrive at the place and Samuel and Rachel need to flee. Rachel takes the object with her and disappears. Samuel identifies the men in the photo and soon he learns that he has entered in the uncanny world of The Seven Muses, cruel supernatural women that have inspired and destroyed writers along the centuries. Further, there is no way out unless he destroys the Seventh Muse. But who and where she is?"Muse" is a little gem with a melancholic and complex storyline about the muses that inspire writers throughout time described as insidious and cruel supernatural women. The viewer needs to pay attention to the screenplay that has many details and references. Viewers that had the chance to see the spooky 1988 "Spellbinder" will delight with the underrated "Muse" that has the same style. My vote is seven.Title (Brazil): Not Available
sigynnez Well, I must confess that I love almost all work of Jaume Balaguero.That being said, I learned something a while ago: when the movie have an awesome opening credits sequence that give me the lead that it wont be a good movie.And I was right. This movie have a SPECTACULAR opening credits sequence, and it wasn't very good.Why, then, I rated 8/10? Becuase it have all what I like from Balaguero's work. Wonderful special effects, good actors/actresses, great visual sequences (beautiful, let me say) and a supernatural mythology that could be expanded. But it let me with no surprises, I knew where it will lead, it was predictable, and most of all, the story wasn't very good developed to feel for any of the characters.Some things were rushed (like the two leads atraction) and the secondary characters were not good.The good: the cinematography, atmosphere, visual effects, and creepy scenes. Good acting.The bad: not good story, not good development on characters.Watch at your own risk.
horrorgasm There are a few brief moments that resemble horror, but Muse is really more of a supernatural thriller or a dark adventure. It's not going to be anyone's favorite movie of the year, but it's still a pretty solid production, with good cinematography, cast, and characters.The big issue here is the core premise, which is actually really interesting and filled with potential, but ends up feeling a little underdeveloped. I wish there would have been more backstory on the individual muses and that we'd have gotten to see more of their interesting powers. I have to give the movie credit for at least making me that interested that I wanted more of what it had though. Overall it was still a good, enjoyable film that kept my attention the whole time and I didn't regret my time spent on it.
kshgupta How can any one make such a bad horror movie it should have been rated below 3 satrs
