"A rare collection of artifacts from an archeological dig in Egypt are brought to the famous Musée du Louvre in Paris. While experts are using a laser scanning device to determine the age of a sarcophagus, a ghostly spirit escapes and makes its way into the museum's electrical system. Museum curator Faussier (Jean-Francois Balmer) brings in a noted Egyptologist, Glenda Spencer (Julie Christie), to examine the findings, and she announces that the mummy inside the coffin was actually the evil spirit Belphegor.Meanwhile, a young woman named Lisa (Sophie Marceau) who lives across the street from the museum follows her runaway cat into the Louvre after closing time. She is accidentally given a shock that sends the stray spirit into her body. Soon Lisa is disguising herself as Belphegor and making off with the rare Egyptian treasures on display at the museum, convinced that they are rightfully hers. When Belphegor proves more than a match for the Louvre's security forces, renowned detective Verlac (Michel Serrault) is brought out of retirement to find out why the museum's Egyptian collection has been shrinking."
Such a bad movie, it was all over the place that I didn't really know what genre to place this film. There are horror elements but its considered a fantasy. I really hated this movie it was boring but had the potential to do a lot. Due to poor acting, script, plot, etc this movie will never be remembered in a few years. The lead actress was beautiful but she wasn't used to the best of her abilities. The best thing about the film was the mummy's costume that the possessed people wore under his control. I Suggest you skip this film!
0/5
Little Info
It was actually the first film to be shot on location in the Musee du Louvre
