What would Jesus do if he returned to Earth and discovered he could no longer relate to the youth of today?

It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

A reincarnation of Judas Iscariot himself could not have done a better job of cinematically betraying Jesus as the makers of this unpleasant reminder that practically anyone with a video camera and a few bucks in his/her pocket can become an indie-producer nowadays (but not necessarily a competent or successful one). Did not the director learn anything in film school about what it means when the red part of the audio meters catch on fire because the sound was recorded a tad too hot? I cannot think of a better example of just how low sub-standard production values can regrettably sink to than this trailer-trashy ultra-sick-flick. I am seriously talking here about a level of gross neglect of basic quality control standards that is so far below the bottom-of-the-barrel basement that it comes out somewhere on the other side of our planet! And this kind of sub-amateurishness is particularly ultra-offensive if they actually think their end product sizzles with creativity (when it is more like the antithesis of creativity). And I hate that for the title of this Jesus-bashing foolishness they use ULTRA in conjunction with Christ and then throw an exclamation mark in there as though to add some emotional emphasis. Am I supposed to gasp or faint or sigh or go "Oooooh, how clever. Oh my!" or fast-forward to the end credits so I can read the names of the ungodly perpetrators of this cosmic crime, an evil attack against God and All Beings who are forever Holy and Divine? Christ basically means THE ANOINTED ONE. It is not a new brand of toothpaste guaranteed to cleanse your decaying enamel of all forms of tartar and iniquity and so why attach ULTRA to it as though it was? Woe unto thee, you mischievously wicked malcontents who peddle your dirty little damnation deed perhaps inspired by some demonically-flavored Satan-seed! So to sum up this movie in just a few words: Slander! Blasphemy! Sacrilege! Ultra-Judas! Ultra-Iscariot!

OK, so clearly it was a group of friends having fun on a shoestring budget, and certainly there are jokes and references I'm not going to get because I'm not from NY. If the that sort of goofiness bothers you, then this is not a movie for you.The outrageousness of the premise only goes so far, and you can tell that the Dye and Hoffman were struggling a little to keep the funny going sometimes. However, I thought it was really enjoyable. Also, though the outrageousness admittedly only goes so far, it does still go really really far. The acting was hilarious (sometimes intentionally, sometimes unintentionally). There were some really fantastic one-liners, and there's even a message... of sorts.The question we are left with, was that really just a back rub Ira was giving to Mother Mary?

I found Ultrachrist to be a laugh out loud good time. Jonathan C. Green's portrayal of the childlike savior returned to earth was great fun. The opening of the film is totally cute and the Finale is as well. Yes the movie is low budget but it is a Hoot. My only problem was it seemed to drag along near the end. It is only 92 minutes long but begins to feel like it is +2 hours, before the resolution occurs. For those wondering about a rating PG is pretty much what it qualifies for with Kissing Lipstick Lesbians and an Dominatrix. Overall the acting was sketchy but no one rents a movie this low budget expecting Academy Award winning anything. I had a good time and it wasn't even that blasphemous.

This ultra silly, very low-budget comedy sometimes felt like a Lenny Bruce bit brought to life--he used to do sketches on what would happen if Jesus came back. The humor isn't exactly inspired but there are enough laughs to make this one a pleasant surprise for people who aren't easily offended by religious themed humor. Ultimately the movie is no more irreverent than what they do with the Jesus character on South Park, so I doubt that too many people outside of the bible belt will really have a problem with this. If you're looking for something fun to rent you could do a lot worse than Ultrachrist.
