The Devil's Nightmare / Messiah of Evil 2003 Horror Movie Review

I agree with all the other reviews that this is a fantastic double-bill of two over-looked and underappreciated horror films.  This is probably the best and cheapest bargain you can find at Amazon.  Two really good old-school horror films for $4?!  Add to cart now.


Anyway, too many good reviews already written so i’ll just say i think Messiah of Evil is the better film with a couple of really great scenes(market, theater) that are good at building up tension and scares.  Devil’s Nightmare is the more exploitive of the two horror films with a great lesbian scene and reminds me of what a Hammer film might be like if an Italian director made it.  Both films though are quite entertaining but for different reasons as Messiah is rather serious and moody while Nightmare is more playful and conventional.


So, if you’re tired of cgi-filled action movies posing as horror films nowadays, you should definitely give this one-two punch a try.  If you enjoy old-school horrors that try to give you that sense of eerie chills and atmosphere, then you can’t go wrong with this $4 combo.  Highly recommended.
