Legend of the Muse

Cool story. Great ensemble cast. Beautifully shot.... I definitely recommend checking it out. It's on Amazon Prime.

'Legend of the Muse' is a critically-acclaimed psychological thriller that has played at over 28 film festivals around the world, collecting awards for best feature, best screenplay, and audience choice, among other accolades.

Shot on a 15-day schedule, the feature is a slow burn, yet alluring as a psychological thriller. Artsy horror.

There is very much in this that directly reminds you of Roman Polanski's unsurpassed psychological thriller "Repulsion" from 60 years ago, it's the same kind of moods and spooky capriciousness that suddenly explode into horrifying nastiness, and many problems remain when the film is finished. What about all those bodies? There are a number of them, and although you never see them quite dead they just don't disappear. The performances of Elle Evans and Riley Egan are terrific, at first you suspect that the whole movie will just consist of effects, but fortunately there is more to it than superficial artifice, as the legend behind the story is of vital importance and bears heavily on the film. It is gradually revealed by Jennie Fahn as the art gallery owner, who is the only one why understands what everything is all about, which makes her part as important as Elle Evans and Riley Egan. It is a weird story indeed that constantly grows in weirdness to over and over again reach great moments of unexpected turns and shocks. This is a film to remember and grant the same status as Polanski's "Repulsion", but this is all in colour. And being an art film, the red colour of blood is red indeed.
