“Left Behind” (2014) Podcast Movie Review

Dare Daniel: Cage Match – Round 3

Left Behind (2014; Dir.: Vic Armstrong) – Episode 126

“It’s just a bad trip!”

Daniel “Dan” “Buck” Barnes and Corky Carpathia continue their Cage Match series with a Rapture-ous review of Left Behind (2014). Cage has little to do but somehow manages to do less with it, as the great ones so often do. His real-life quest for the Holy Grail led him to this, a paycheck movie in praise of a vengeful God.

Elsewhere, Daniel and Corky discuss rapture fakeouts, union-busting breakdancers and gasp counters.
