Review – The Omega Code

The end times are upon us. The Whore of Babylon is a telejournalist. The False Prophet is a motivational speaker. Michael York is The Beast. Well, okay, I guess none of that is really all that unbelievable. Throw in a hearty dose of the nonsensical Bible Code, and you’ve got the makings for a Trinity Broadcasting Network version of Revelation tailor-made for the new millennium. Heck, some of the bad guys seem to have second thoughts about their evil ways. Even The Beast has his doubts. The False Prophet ends up so overwhelmed by conscience that he switches sides. How neo-Christian! With all due respect to the Bible Code, I have to say that I prefer the original St. John version of the Apocalypse to this odd, touchy-feely rendition. Finally, fans of The Atomic Cafe will probably find themselves with one of the odd nuclear ditties from the documentary’s soundtrack stuck in their heads at the end of this movie. Mildly amusing
