So through a series of events (which I will not spoil for you), the events lead up to the sudden and unexpected rapture, where Patty's husband is among the raptured. Patty and Diane decide to go to the fair and there they meet Jim (Mike Niday) and Jerry (Thom Rachford), while Jenny stays back to receive the Gospel message (which is preachy and at the same time effective in its own way, despite the less-than-stellar acting). It turns out that Patti was at that event, and so was a friend named Diane Bradford (Maryann Rachford) and another named Jenny (Colleen Niday). singing the famous Christian song "I Wish We'd All Been Ready" (which is surprinsingly effective in evoking emotion in a way that few songs do), which is based off the idea of people who are left behind after the Rapture.

We start with a scene with a (youth?) group. After we are given a scary shot of Jim's shaving razor and we hear Patty's screaming, we are given a flashback as to how it built up. The film begins with Patty Jo Meyers (Patty Dunning), who wakes up and finds that her husband Jim Wright (Mike Niday) is not in the bed with her so she looks around while a radio host is announcing of the Rapture that just happened (though many people at the time don't believe it could have been a Rapture except the theologically oriented who were left behind in the event). So for those of you who don't know, I will summarize the plot briefly. Thompson.Īs a Christian, I hold this film to be of much interest, and I want to share that with fellow Christians and non-Christians among the cinephile community (including this subreddit). The original idea is based off the Scriptural doctrines of the last days and end-times, and it came from Russell Doughten and Donald W.

Thompson's 1972 rapture/eschatological movie A Thief in the Night, which was very popular in the 1970s among Christians, and which has been a factor (if not the factor) in many conversions of non-Christians to Christianity. Somehow though, I hate the thought of leaving Adriano to deal with this on his own.In my thread on Plan 9 from Outer Space, I talked about considering to do a review of Donald W. The bad guys are closing in, and the smart choice would be to escape and save myself-after all, self-preservation is what I’m best at. Then, before we could retrieve his watch, an urgent call from home set him in motion. It sucked when he managed to track me down. Not that I’d planned to rip off Adriano Dombruso when he picked me up in a bar, but that vintage Rolex was just too tempting to pass up. I rob from the rich and give to-well, to me.

I like to think of myself as a modern-day Robin Hood. I can’t deny it, I’m still drawn to Jack-but how can I trust him? But what choice do I have? If I let him out of my sight, he and my most prized possession will disappear forever. Now I have to bring Jack along while I deal with the mobster who’s targeting my family-as if a road trip with that little thief is even sort of a good idea. Awesome.ĭays later, I finally tracked him down, just as I got the news that all hell was breaking loose back home in Las Vegas. But the night ended with me chasing him through the streets of San Francisco half-naked, after he stole my late father’s watch. Jack was gorgeous, and the spark between us was intense. It started as the hottest hook-up of my life.
