I had previously seen this movie years ago and it had a lasting impact on me. My son wanted to see it again because it left an impression on him also. It had many well known actors and was very well made. The special effects were good. I did think the battle scene at the end was a little drawn out but overall would highly recommend.

Don't Count This Movie Out Yet
Added 1/28/2009
I just finished watching this movie rebroadcast on TBN and I thought I had seen it. Then I remembered the first movie, the Omega Code and realized that's what I saw.
Many Christian films are guilty of bad scripts and overacting. However, that doesn't mean that there isn't something to be learned. Some commented on the fact that Jesus was not mentioned at all. However, I think if the name of Jesus had been overused and the movie played out in a typical fashion of the already faithful saving the world.
The writer's interpretation of the antiChrist in this film does lend itself to some very historical figures, if you can recognize them. Rather, I appreciate the fact that this film has characters fighting an evil they don't even understand. They just know he's evil and they don't know why for most of the movie.
I would definitely show this movie to a youth group (I don't think it's for adults unless they are in the military) and those who would respond specifically to this message. It definitely appeals to a certain type of individual, so it should not be discounted.
Sure, there are other films about the anti-Christ and you can choose whether or not you want to view them, but I believe so many of these films exist because people want answers and they are searching for them. At this particular time in world history, it is acceptable to talk about the anti-Christ again. Then we will be on to something else.
Give the message a chance and not focus on the superficial things about the movie. Aren't we supposed to be better than that?

Watch the Omen series instead
Added 3/23/2008
Wow, the plot is a total rip-off of the Omen movies. I totally recommend watching those instead of this piece of rubbish. The production in the Omen movies is much better than in this.

Symbolic Images
Added 2/5/2008
The movie presents some very fantastic images which might assist in reading the Book of Revelation. Do not get caught by the fictional movie script/story as a means to explain the Book of Revelation. It is best to read and understand Revelation as a time of persecution due to culture and economic conditions in the first century.

excellent futuristic view into man's future
Added 10/17/2007
This dvd video is an excellent view into the future of manking after jesus comes to redeem his own who are saved to hiim. I believe that it will be much worse than we can even imagine. The human mind cannot even fathom the evil which is to befall the rest of the sinners who refuse to seek God in this tiime and age. I can say that anyone who watches this dvd will come away with a new undersstanding of Jesus and Gods love. i can only say that Jesus has helped me at times when others wouldn't lift a finger and this dvd will change others. it is a scary portrayal of the future.
