obviously inspire by se7en and sometimes even more gruesome while more bloodshed and very graphic detail ( a bit too much for my taste ) . great script and acting ( i be especially impress by ken stott and there be no weak point in te cast ) . good cinematography and very realistic stereo sound . one of the best thriller i have see since year . although it be schedule on bbc in three part i watch messiah on video in one take . one point of critic while the motivation of the villain be not very convincing .
