Profile of Belphegor: Phantom of the Louvre

The mood of Belphegor: Phantom of the Louvre is atmospheric, scary, and suspenseful. The plot centers around mummies, riddles and clues, and the afterlife. It is a foreign, horror, and fantasy movie. Stylistically, it stars a strong female character. In approach, it is fantastical and serious. The setting is Egypt and Paris. It happens in ancient times and in contemporary times. It is based on a TV series and based on a book. It is especially suggested for teens.

Summary of Belphegor: Phantom of the Louvre

An impressive international cast, including Sophie Marceau (BRAVEHEART) and Academy Award winner Julie Christie, headline this big-budget French fright-fest reminiscent of such American counterparts as THE MUMMY, HOLLOW MAN (2000), and THE DA VINCI CODE. A terrifying ghostly spirit makes its way out if its tomb--a strange artifact brought back to the Louvre from Egypt--and into the celebrated museum's electrical system. Before long, innocent Lisa (Marceau) suffers an electric shock and becomes possessed with the spirit of mythical demon of temptation Belphegor, and the Louvre is transformed into a virtual slaughterhouse. This non-stop chiller was a box-office smash in its native France.

Quality French cheese. With surprisingly high level locations and cast. Don't expect to actually be frightened or blown away by the historical accuracy, just break out the wine, invite some friends over, sit back and enjoy. This is a thoroughly...
