P B Jul 10 Kind of watchable but as with most 'Arthouse' movies they seem to think that the "art" will suffice for a coherent story and comprehensible dialogue. 100% on Rotten Tomatoes my arse! See more Paul M May 9 I expect more from this. It’s directionless and wandering, missing many of the things that make a lower budget movie entertaining and fun. It’s not terrible but a bit of a swing and miss. There are much better zombie movies on the market, plain and simple. See more Dave S Apr 7 When Arletty (Marianna Hill) shows up in the fog-shrouded town of Point Dume to visit her father, she quickly begins to sniff out that something is amiss thanks to some strange encounters with the locals, who warn her of the menace of blood moons and the return of the ‘dark stranger’ after a 100-year absence. It’s pretty obvious from the get-go that Messiah of Evil was made on a shoestring budget (cheap looking sets, echoey sound, electronic score, etc), but, despite the financial restraints, it does manage to establish an ominous atmosphere at times and has a handful of decent set pieces. However, it gets a bit tiresome as the weirdness stacks up (why are the zombies all so well dressed and why in the world doesn’t Arletty just leave town?) and you eventually have to wonder if it’s really worth the effort to figure out what the hell is going on. See more Dom L 06/10/2024 Bizarre and fascinating! Recently came upon this cult film after many years of hearing about it, and it did not disappoint. A truly unique tone. See more g j 06/02/2024 Quintessential 70's horror with a broodingly unsettling atmosphere and an arresting visual style. The plot is fairly incoherent, but plays second to the general mood of the film anyway. See more Jon G 03/02/2024 I cannot believe I missed this gem so many years ago! So happy to have found it!
