Platypuschow The weirdest thing about this odd little movie is that its labelled a remake of The Mummy (1932) (And subsequent remakes). But instead of a mummy we have a witch.And instead of Egypt it's Ireland.And instead of being good, its terrible.Starring Christopher Walken and Jared Harris, even a decent cast couldn't turn this one around.The plot is thoroughly confuddled, the script is dire and the only thing that the movie has going for it is the finale but even that is recycled.The Eternal (Otherwise known as Trance) is a hard one to pigeon hole. It's not exactly a traditional horror, more a supernatural thriller maybe?One thing is for sure, the movie isn't as smart as the creators clearly thought it was and falls under the category of instantly forgettable.The Good:Walken and Harris do fineThe Bad:Messy score/soundtrackWalken is wastedThings I Learnt From This Movie:Getting knocked out twice within the space of a few minutes has to have a lasting impact right?

banditmia Yikes did this movie blow. The characters were weak, the plot weaker. I figured this couldn't be too bad because it has Christoper Walken, oops. He must have done this because he was bored and needed the money. The characters were supposed to be Irish but noone had an Irish accent. I am desperately trying to find something nice about this, I can't except Walken did a fine job with a wooden character. Find something to read, or watch discovery, don't ever see this movie.

Middelkoop This movie was, as some other people already said, very vague. I found this movie in a discount box at a local record store. That is exactly the place this movie should be found in. I wouldn't say this movie was bad though. The camera work was excellent; the eerie atmosphere was really clear throughout this movie, but the storyline was just to flawed to actually make out what really happened, or what was meant to happen. Some scenes though, were just irrelevant, like the one where old lover Joe suddenly came to the house again and, well, didn't really have a further contribution except dying. Plus I wonder what the whole point behind the couple's drinking problem was. It clearly didn't have any further added value to the story. Overall, I would say this movie could have been a lot better if the storyline were worked out in a better way.6/10

Eddyspeeder I always found the movie vague, as you can read in an earlier comment on the movie, although this has changed recently because I decided to watch it again for a report I had to make for religion class (I recommend you to also watch this movie if you need to make a similar report).To agree with me on this one, you must've seen this movie several times. "Trance" is, as a matter of fact, a perfect Celtic labyrinth. It does not only provide much information about what we know of the Celtic religion; it also shows the practical side of the Celtic forces. The movie has been built up as a perfect information-providing movie and could undoubtfully be called a labyrinth. A real good source if you want to know more about the Celtic religion. Believe me, once you've discovered the labyrinth structure hidden in the movie, you'll find the movie a lot less vague.
