This is the fourth film in a series following the movies "Apocalypse", "Revelation" and "Tribulation" and for those who have seen the third movie ("Tribulation") they will realize that it starts off with a big surprise: "Helen Hannah" (Leigh Lewis) is not dead. Instead the guillotine blade was stopped by the anti-Christ "Franco Macalousso" (Nick Mancuso) just prior to killing her. The reason for this is because Franco Macalousso wants to stage a "show trial" to convince everybody that "the Haters" (i.e. Christians) are an enemy who need to be exposed and exterminated if they don't receive "the Mark". As a result a top attorney by the name of "Victoria Throne" (Jessica Steen) is selected to prosecute the case and ensure the maximum propaganda effect. On the other side is a lawyer named "Mitch Kendrick" (Corbin Bernsen) who is essentially drafted to stage a fake defense. But Mitch doesn't like the hand he is dealt and decides to change the nature of the trial so that God is the defendant and Hannah is merely his puppet on a string. Although Franco Macalousso likes the idea Victoria realizes that her carefully crafted script is now useless and that she no longer has complete control over the course of the trial. At any rate, rather than disclose what happens next I will just say that this was an entertaining addition to the series which had some good points and some bad points as well. I liked the actors involved and the overall story. However, the script was extremely uneven and the sets were also rather limited. Even so I think most people who enjoy films of this nature will like this one too. Slightly above average.
