Here's what people have been saying about Ultrachrist!
"... first-time Director Kerry Douglas Dye infuses the movie with a wide-eyed naivete and sincere message. Like Woody Allens early efforts, the film trades a Hollywood budget for New York locations, Jesus whiny Jewish accent and pure, madcap comedy. And like the best of Allens films, Ultrachrist! ultimately is about how to live your life in an ever complex and changing world. ... a fun rental for the truly adventurous or the merely curious alike." -- Carl Davis, DVD Talk
"... this movie couldve fallen flat on its face if the subject matter wasnt handled properly. Luckily for viewers it is, as the film is a comedy that plays by its own set of rules ... and follows them. Jesus is never parodied, though that wouldve been the easy way around things, and the story never becomes too preachy or too blasphemous. It walks a fine line and comes out looking pretty good." -- Doug Brunell, Film Threat
"Overall this is a good Saturday afternoon camp flick, or something to watch on that Saturday night while getting drunk with a bunch of friends. There is no doubt that this movie is a campy b-grade indie flick, and not for everyone. However, those of you with a twisted sense of humor may find this the highest point of an upcoming weekend." -- Mark Carras, Abrasive Rock
"... first-time director Kerry Douglas Dye gives the movie just enough zany, underground, semi-competent, 'Rocky Horror'-crossed-with-early-Woody-Allen appeal to win some eye-rolling grins." -- Rob Blackwelder, SPLICEDwire
[No excerpts included, but worth reading in its entirety. This guy really hates Ultrachrist! and asks why we can't be more true to the "Jesus of the Old Testament". Swear to God. (And he misspells the movie's title, but that's another story.)] -- DVD of the Weak, Winged DVD
"... the actors lovingly play their roles and focus on the human aspects of living in a ridiculous world. This sincerity is the key to the movie's success. Rather than sinking into a bitter critique like Kevin Smith's Dogma did, the cast and crew have fun with their topic. ... The film's innocence, combined with some funny moments, an exuberant cast and a truly goofy script, makes Ultrachrist! the best Jesus superhero movie you'll see this year." -- Ron Davies, Splendid E-zine
Entertainment Today DVD Review "What the movie lacks in production value ... it makes up for in twisted, well-read imagination. Its strongest point is its writing, where a variety of one-liners ... keep a wry smile on your face." -- Entertainment Today
"Frightened by the End of Days? Well brother, put aside those foreboding copies of LEFT BEHIND and MEGIDDO: THE OMEGA CODE 2 and sit down to the funniest Second Coming since JOHN WAYNE BOBBITT UNCUT." [3-1/2 stars] -- Horrorwood Babble-On
"... worth checking out." -- Uncle Dan's House of Smut
"FOUR STARS! If comic book superheroes are religion, consider us converted! Ultrachrist! saves the day!" -- Film Threat
"I never thought of Jesus as the kind of guy I'd want make out with. Jonathan C. Green rocks my socks off. 'Ultrachrist!' is smart and funny, tender and wise. It's the 'Citizen Kane' of Jesus-in-Spandex movies." -- Marcy Dermansky, Independent Film Guide, About.com
"One heir of this not-too-prestigious lineage [Jesus movies] is the brilliant Ultrachrist!, from Kerry Douglas Dye ... described by those who've seen it as a two-hour South Park episode. Which is totally a recommendation." -- rebelion.org (in Spanish)
"... like a cross between a Troma production and one of the Kinks early-70s concept albums." -- The New York Press
If Christ came back, he'd be exactly like this. Especially with ...

Once you put your mind in the place that this is more like a film college final project, it's highly amusing. Until Vlad the Impaler melts.
