King Von Bee Long time IMDb user, have created an account just to rate this with a scarcely deserved 1 little, shineless star and to let everybody know how bad this movie is. PEOPLE, if you're bored and have nothing else to do and you consider watching this, DON'T ! You'll waste precious moments of your life, so DON'T ! (Incredible bad script, incredible bad acting, incredible bad fx, incredibly how this made to screen!!!)

zetes The summer of 2013 saw two big Rapture-themed comedies released, This Is the End and The World's End. Well, apparently, Rapture-Palooza was a third, but you probably never heard of it. It was actually released a few days before This Is the End in a few theaters, but it disappeared with little note and ended up on Netflix (is it even on video?). No surprise, really, as it isn't very good. It's not awful, though. Anna Kendrick stars, so it probably couldn't be really terrible. She and John Francis Daley (who played Sam Weir on Freaks and Geeks) star as a dorky young couple who stayed on Earth after the Rapture. Craig Robinson (who also co-starred in This Is the End) plays the Antichrist. When he catches sight of Kendrick, he falls for her, so she and Daley decide to put an end to him. There are actually a good handful of big laughs here, but for every joke that works there are at least two that don't. It seems to fall back on random swearing when things start to slow down (Craig Robinson is particularly disappointing here, since that seems to be his whole schtick). That said, my favorite gag in the movie is probably the foul-mouthed crows. Rob Corddry, Rob Huebel, Paul Scheer, Tyler Labine, Ana Gasteyer, Thomas Lennon, Ken Jeong and John Michael Higgins co-star.
rossini-1868 I don't know if I'll ever be able to make it all the way through this. It looks like a direct and very unaffectionate mockery. But I noticed that if you look at it long enough, the very things that they are poking fun at begin to take on a creepy and somewhat unsettling connotation. Cursing crows, blood rain, falling fire rocks, zombie apocalypse, etc. Sadly, the movie is not clever enough to overcome its own stupidity, which is to basically look God in the face and stick your tongue out at him in total disrespect. This movie is on the line between poking fun at human arrogance and misplaced fanaticism and making fun of God himself. This is one of those movies you can't unsee once you look at it, and to tell you the truth, I almost wish to God I had never saw a second of it. But being a graduate student of theology, how can I resist? Tragically, parts of this disrespectful farce are almost funny.
jfarms1956 The movie Rapture-Palooza will probably most appeal to those between the ages of 9 and 25 and for those who may not be Christians. Pot heads may also enjoy this movie. Since I don't fall into any of the aforementioned categories, I didn't like the film. If you do fall into any of the aforementioned categories, you might want to have an "end of days" party while watching this movie with a group of friends.The movie presents a different outlook on the Book of Revelation and how the world comes to an end. The movie has slightly a comedic outlook on how the world ends. Yet, in this version, Jesus, God, and Satan all die and the world continues. The movie does have a touch of horror by having Zombies and wraiths -- but even these are presented in a comedic fashion. This movie could easily leave one more depressed than when the movie started. Stupid movie. Doesn't go anywhere with me.
