A Mexican movie produced by Televisa, with poor story, and poor cast. It was slow, boring, dull and poorly acted. I was not expecting something fair nor outstanding because good horror movies are hard to find in Mexico. Some of the characters were overacted and their dialogs were poorly connected with the whole story. The movie was a low-budget film lacking of good effects.The movie tells the same story as in old wrestlers-horror movies, starring "El Santo". It reminded me too Mexican soup operas, which all of them tell the same story. Do not waste your time and money. Viewers are misguided to the box office thinking that horror productions have been already improved in Mexico, which is not true. On the contrary, they have worsened and have not taken advantage of new technology and they certainly are not using new and fresh stories from new talents.

Not for gore and screaming lovers

This movie is great, but not suitable for fans of blood pools, piles of dismembered bodies, endless screaming, and crazy editing. If you watch 'Morgana' you have to think a little, and also be capable to enjoy its visual richness.
Horror here is subtle. If you do not speak Spanish, you will miss a lot about the story; anyway, if you like excellent cinematography you could give it a try.
Cinematography and settings are atmospheric and beautiful.
'Morgana' has nothing to do with Santo films or with soap (not soup) operas.
It was not produced by Televisa, but by don Gonzalo Elvira, a movie producer that knows his trade; just imagine, his family has been making successful films since the late 1930s.
Ramón Obón, the writer and director has a long experience in writing horror screenplays. In this movie, his references to Carlos Enrique Taboada's horror movies are frequent and suitable to the story.
After watching 'Morgana' in TV, I will definitely buy the DVD.
