Subject: What a good surprise!
Yeah, very good movie! As someone has already said, it really works as a horror movie.

Subject: What a movie !!!
I had never even heard of this film even though I love sci-fi and horror.
WOW !! I found this way more scarey than modern gore-fests, and as is often true what you don't see is more frightening as your own mind conjures up what scares you the most.
All in all brilliant defo 5 stars from me.

Subject: great film!
Slow start, but not a bad cannibal film. The gore is at a minimum. Featuring Elisha Cook, Jr. and Joy Bang (a Warhol alumnus). the violence is usually off screen, but still creepy. Banksy must have seen this film, because the paintings featured have a strong resemblance to Banksy's work. Great "graffiti" art work, I wonder who did the paintings in this film?

Subject: Great Movie!!!
One of my favorite horrors flix of all time! I has all the hallmarks of a great horror movie.
Thru the whole movie you're saying WTF.. Okay I was saying it. If anyone says this was predictable they're lying. Marriana Hill is, as someone mentioned. absolutely Gorgeous. Anitra Ford, yes that is the correct sp of first name, is beautiful too! Joy Bang, (yes that's right) is a hot little alcoholic slut... if that appeals to you. The location was unreal, Marrianna's character is trying to find her father, who is an artist and lived in the house where a lot of the movie takes place. I'd really love to hear the story behind that! The whole house, which is big, has artwork on all the walls, lending a very surrealistic atmosphere. The crazy albino, really creeped me out, great acting on his behalf.

Thru the whole movie, you really never know what's going on, and what will happen next.Just after the hour mark, the male co-star, is back in town, being persued by the zombie. He runs into a young woman, who'd bet was in real life a local who got a chance to have a tiny part in a movie. I thought here acting was brilliant. She had a quite long dialogue, and it was done in one take, but it seemed great to me anyway. If you are into horror, this flick is great!

Subject: This is a MUST See Public Domain film.
Much like "Night of the Living Dead" you might question how this gem entered into the Public Domain. Although some will complain about the movies slow start, I can say the same about many Stephen King and John Carpenter films. In many ways this film has the feel of something Stephen King, John Carpenter, and Alfred Hitchcock might have collaborated on.

The cast looks great and it has that sense where you see the gore but you do not really see it (similar to the Texas Chainsaw Massacre). A couple of my favorite scenes (that happen almost one after the other) is watching the Albino eat a live mouse, then watching the village raid the Grocery store and start eating raw meat right of the cooler. You can almost see the gore (though none exists) in these scenes and the one that follows of them eating a young woman.

There is some nudity in the original version; however, I cannot recall seeing any in this version (but then again I might be immune to it by now considering the ton of films out there that have nudity in them.)

A real find for those who like movies similar to:
Night of the Living Dead, The Fog, Prince of Darkness, or Storm of the Century.

Subject: Creepy, sexy movie
This movie is strange and scary, and you always anticipate a barrage of sex at anytime which that never happens, but it seems like it would I guess because now a days it always does, but anyhow I had to turn it off last night before the half time because I got scared and was worried about dead people getting me in my apartment. But I just returned to where I left off last night its afternoon now and I could have watched it all last night because it wasn't that scary anymore. No naked people just dead people like Zombies trying to get live flesh to eat. This movie is a good accounting of The early 70's fashion and attitude. "Sit on It", and 'Get in your pants' came from there.

Reviewer: salt4pepper - - June 13, 2010
Subject: It works.
This movie really works for me. Not great, mediocre acting, choppy editing, but not a slasher movie, and doesn't rely on gore. Works more on the head, and I like it.

Subject: creepy underated movie
messiah of evil aka;dead people is a creepy underated movie about creepy dead people who eat the living,yes sort of zombies.theres a creepy albino dude who eats rats.and lots of nightmare scenes,and good performances by royal dano and elisha cook jr.when it was released it bombed at the box office.but i think its a very weird creepy and surreal movie that may induce nightmares.

Reviewer: Carolyn Blake - - May 26, 2010
Subject: A great period piece
It's worth it just to revisit the 70's...you just have to see a man with a bad haircut running for his life down Main street at night, in a white polyester leisure suit. But, it really was a very watchable movie, with an unusual premise.

Reviewer: MoviePowderDotCom - - October 6, 2009
Subject: My 2 cents
Can't say as I completely disagree with mandrakes but have to add two points #1 Marianna Hill is gorgeous and worth watching and #2 the ending is exceptional.

Reviewer: mme.truffle - - September 29, 2009
Subject: slow, creeping, doom-laden horror
As the previous reviewer said, this is an incredibly slow film by contemporary standards. If you're looking for action look elsewhere. But it is exactly what it is supposed to be. It permeates with a slow, overwhelming dread and strangeness. I would almost say that it is existential horror because the curse in the film plagues the mind as well as the body, creating a situation where you don't know if it's actually happening or if it's just an inherited madness.

Subject: slow movie with nudity
Well that pretty much says it all.
