Apocalypse (film)
Encyclopedia : A : AP : APO : Apocalypse (film)
Apocalypse is the first film in Cloud Ten Pictures' Apocalypse film series about the end times. This film is also the first film that Cloud Ten did. It was released on video and DVD and never made it to the theatres. The film was made in 1998 in association with Jack Van Impe Ministires.
The films show Jack Van Impe as himself in videos played after he has been raptured. Oddly, even though there are four films in the series, the only end time events depicted in the films are the Rapture, the War of Ezekiel 38-39, and the mark of the beast.
The series consists of:
- Apocalypse
- Revelation
- Tribulation
- Judgment
Tagline: Caught in the eye of the storm.
