""Messiah of Evil" is the kind of movie that's made from its flaws as much as its strengths. The incoherence of the screenplay is actually a prime example of great horror storytelling. On the surface, it pretends to explain all, but the "explanation" only succeeds in raising more questions. A great horror film leaves giant holes in the screen for us to project our own fears and does not reassure us in the end that all is well. At its most basic level, a good horror story is about uncertainty, and "Messiah of Evil" is one of the most uncertain movies ever made." - Brian Holcomb, Beyond Hollywood
