The Dark Stranger is coming…
A small California village is attacked by zombies in this 1974 thriller. This film is a mix of the works of H.P. Lovecraft, Carnival of Souls (1962), and Night of the Living Dead (1968), topped off with a nod from the psychedelic early seventies. Almost nothing in the entire plot is ever explained, but rather left to the viewer’s interpretation. The movie’s dream-like structure leads the viewer to question what is going on, and with each successive scene, the mystery becomes more obscure. It is interesting to note an urban legend regarding the film exists that a key subplot regarding the true nature of Michael Greer’s character “Thom” and his connection to the “Messiah of Evil”, aka the “dark stranger” was cut from the final edit of the film. Greer plays the “dark stranger” in the flashback sequence and at the end of the film, Thom tells Arletty of a dream he had, placing him in a situation similar to the “Donner Party”, that the “dark stranger” was present at. This leaves the question of whether or not Thom was the reincarnation of the “dark stranger” or the actual “dark stranger”.
