Leave your thoughts about The World's Greatest Sinner.
| eFilmCritic.comRob GonsalvesAll independent filmmakers and cult-flick fans must bow down to the low-rent majesty that is Timothy Agoglia Carey's The World's Greatest Sinner. |
| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzThis curio cult film takes the cake for being so nutty and tasteless. |
| User ReviewAaron SFascinating, one-of-a-kind low budget masterpiece, with a lead performance so broad and out there, that you're never likely to forget it. It's not for everyone, but it IS for anyone who ever questioned what we're all doing here. The ending (for those who "get" it) will leave you dumbstruck. |
| User ReviewJohn KI watched this on TCM a couple of nights ago, and man, was it strange... but also brilliant. An absolutely fascinating movie, and one I would definitely recommend to cult film fans. |
| User ReviewKenneth SThroughout his career, veteran character actor Timothy Carey filled many important supporting roles in various films, from Stanley Kubrick's THE KILLING to The Monkees' HEAD. THE WORLD'S GREATEST SINNER marks the only film in which Carey is the leading man. Not only did he play the lead character, though, but he also wrote, directed, and produced the film. It never received a proper theatrical release, only being seen in underground circuits and on late night television. imothy Carey plays Clarence Hilliard, a bored insurance salesman who creates his own religion/political party. Unforgettable and captivating, THE WORLD'S GREATEST SINNER is one of underground cinema's greatest achievements. |
| User ReviewChris .Timothy Carey is the only reason to watch this, I need to see more films he was in. |
| User ReviewDavid HI liked it. This film illustrates the transformative power of rock 'n roll music and explains where Frank Zappa got his goatee. You wouldn't want to get stuck in an elevator with Timothy Carey. Best line? "Don't worry about burial insurance. After you start to stink someone will bury you . . . " |
| User ReviewDustin W1/2/2009 movie 4 of a 24 hour movie marathon you should follow God because he is man and there is nothing better than that... except that, as a god he can act rather crummy... yet be a winning politician |
| User ReviewAllan CAn absolute MUST-SEE for fans of Timothy Carey and fans of downright bizarre filmmaking. Carey wrote and directed this film outside of the Hollywood system, his only time out behind the camera. He'd made a career of playing psychos and sociopaths. , and this film seems as if it were made by a crazed genius. This is not an it's-so-bad-it's-good movie. It's just out there. Calling it offbeat would be putting it mildly. Definitely not for all tastes. And to add to the weirdness, the film features a score by Frank Zappa . The plot concerns a man (played by Carey) who quits his day job and starts preaching radical ideas to an ever-growing crowd. Eventually, he gains a large group of followers who call him God and listen to his teachings about eternal life, culminating in his running for president. |
| User ReviewMichael SLittle seen vanity piece by Carey (shown once on TCM!) is an amazing, ahead of its time, story of a rock and roll preacher turned cult leader. No one else but Carey could have played this - in his typical crazy, real and hangdog fashion. I thought I was dreaming when I watched it. A sort of masterpiece. |
