Kevin Sorbo (KSorbs) has directed a new Left Behind movie which we encountered in theaters as a Fathom Event. For those unfamiliar with Left Behind, they were a series of 16 bestselling Christian novels covering the End Times and authored by Tim LaHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins. In the early 2000s, Kirk Cameron starred in three films which were adaptations of some of these novels. Then in 2014, Nicolas Cage starred in a big-budget reboot of the series, entitled simply Left Behind. Nine years passed until Kevin Sorbo took up the torch, directing and starring in this new sequel to the Nicolas Cage movie entitled Left Behind: Rise of the Antichrist. This time Kevin Sorbo is playing the lead role of Rayford Steele, accompanied by co-stars Neal McDonough, Corbin Bernsen, Sam Sorbo (Kevin's wife), Braeden Sorbo (Kevin's son), and Bailey Chase playing the rising Antichrist named Nicolae Carpathia. Before we entered this movie, we take you to school on the ideas of premillennial dispensationalism which is a widespread belief system amongst Evangelical Christians in America. We'll tell you all about The Rapture, The Antichrist, The Tribulation, and much more in this episode. And then we'll tell you about this wild movie! It's an epic faith-based Lodgecast with a Seven-Headed Salad Dragon that we can't wait to unveil. Brace yourself for the Apocalypse!
