7cb1d79195 In the last days before Armaggeddon, three men must made one eternal choice: receive the mark of the devil or stand for Christ. This movie will make you think about your own life choices. I won&#39;t actually honor this thing with a comment on it&#39;s valuea movie.<br/><br/>What really shook me actually is the indifference between the &quot;Christians&quot; and the &quot;Community&quot; in the movie. They both are completely like each other. Actually the quotes in the beginning can easily apply to both parties of the movie. And what&#39;s with the black and white attitude? The movie stands on a fine line between delivering a message and an insult, stating every non-believer to be mindless drones. No one stands in the middle.<br/><br/>I should also add that I was unbiased while seeing this. I had no idea it was a Christian movie so I watched until the end because when it has something post apocalyptic, I buy it. It has been so since Mad Max. I watch even the worst. But this… The production company that flashes up on screen at the opening of this movie - Christian Cinema - is a dead giveaway for what is to follow. SIX: THE MARK UNLEASHED is nothing more than a heavy-handed Christian propaganda movie in which the teachings of Christ are portrayeda way forward to a peaceful and tolerant society while everybody else is going to Hell.<br/><br/>To be fair, the film does start outa fairly ordinary sci-fi thriller, set in a dystopian world with the usual governmental oppression. When the action shifts to a prison with the introduction of Stephen Baldwin&#39;s bespectacled preacher, however, things get REALLY preachy. And I mean REALLY. The Bible is shoved down the viewer&#39;s throat at every opportunity, everyone is converted, even the expected atheist guy comes to see the error of his ways come the end. The writers here definitely haven&#39;t heard of subtlety, making this a movie that will be completely off-putting to all but Christian audiences.<br/><br/>There are a few familiar faces propping up this propaganda flick, not least Baldwin himself in an extensive cameo (and always on autopilot). Eric Roberts provides a brief, blink-and-you&#39;ll-miss-him appearance (at least he has the sense not to appear for longer) while Jeffrey Dean Morgan (WATCHMEN) is the erstwhile hero.
