Released in 1973, Messiah of Evil is a moody and surreal supernatural horror film set in a coastal California town shrouded in mystery. When a young woman arrives searching for her estranged father, an artist who has recently gone missing, she soon finds herself surrounded by increasingly strange occurrences. The town’s residents are distant and unsettling, and the eerie paintings her father left behind suggest he may have uncovered something deeply unnatural. As night falls and the full moon rises, she is drawn deeper into a chilling mystery involving whispered legends, bizarre behavior, and ominous warnings from strangers. With an offbeat narrative and striking imagery, the film unfolds as a dreamlike descent into isolation and dread. Messiah of Evil stands out for its atmospheric style and haunting tone, offering a distinct entry into early 1970s horror.
