Left Behind

So I saw Left Behind and boy howdy, it is not a fine movie. I've read at least on review that describes it as a drinking game, and I thought I'd try my hand at making one:

Drink When:

  • The movie's sound track is either wildly inappropriate (like upbeat elevator music over the opening credits) or ridiculously dated (like smooth jazz saxophone when the sultry temptress appears)
  • You notice that Chad Michael Murray's beard is weirdly trimmed and you can't look away from the weird notch in his chin
  • When the only purpose Chad Michael Murray serves in a scene is to hit redial on his cell phone
  • People refer to religious people (especially Lea Thompson) as crazy
  • When characters say that those "crazy" religious people were RIGHT!
  • You see a pile of empty clothes after the Rapture strikes
  • Someone in first class says something and everyone in first class starts standing up and having a big discussion like they're doing a one act play or something.
  • The little person first class passenger is incredibly angry for no reason.
  • Over the top examples of societal breakdowns post-Rapture, including scooter-based purse snatching duos
  • When despite this craze societal breakdown, when it's needed an undamaged, still running motorcycle is readily available just lying on the street
  • Glass is broken (drink twice when the bible is used to break glass!)
  • Something happens that is really really dumb
You might want to watch this movie to make fun of it, but that is the only reason to do so. For the love of God (before he raptures everyone I guess) avoid this!
