Nic Cage Bible Movie Gets YA Spin-Off Flick – Left Behind: The Next Generation
 |
So this is how you do a sequel to a remake of a direct-to-video faith-based film that somehow managed to afford Nicolas Cage the first time around and flopped anyway. Vanished – Left Behind: The Next Generation, based on an actual teen skewing series of spin-off books from the main post-Rapture novel series, promises to be “a fresh and modern story for the post “Twilight” generation, and asks: What would happen if everyone you cared about suddenly vanished?”
I’d try to hook up with one of the people who’s still around, but I’m thinking that’s not what these teens do. The trailer seems like it has Satan Death Camps for parents, and the Antichrist appearing on TV – too bad Nic Cage isn’t around, as he’s been known to fight the devil a few times. Maybe when these younger actors refuse to return for part 3, the next one can be about babies. Because if you think babies are innocent, you never had one keep you up all night.
Because this site is sinful and all, click the image below to see the trailer.
