Members Standing Firm In Christ Posted October 30, 2013 Members Share Posted October 30, 2013 Linda and I are watching one of the best series concerning End Times events that we have ever seen. Russ Daughten's "Thief in the Night" series. Although we have watched the movie many times, we are seeing more and more inconsistencies (bloopers) in the videos. Some time back, we found our first blooper in the first of the series. The movie "Thief in the Night" has one scene in it where a lady is offered the mark of the beast. She is asked whether she wants the mark in her hand or in her forehead. She offers her hand and they tattoo the image on the back of the hand. The blooper? She got it on her left hand instead of her right. Today, we caught the second and third bloopers. The second is in the second DVD in the series, "A Distant Thunder." In it, Patti and Wenda are called out of the Church to see the reality of the sentence passed upon those who refuse to renounce Jesus Christ and refuse to take the mark. Along with Patti and Wenda, two men are called, John and Joey. The blooper? It is not two men and two women being led out of the Church, but rather it is one man and three women. The movie ends with Wenda being beheaded. The third movie in the series, "Image of the Beast," had Patti witnessing Wenda's headless body being carried away from the guillotine platform. Patti is called up to the platform and is too scared to speak out. She is strapped down in the guillotine. Just then, the skies grow dark and there is an earthquake. Everyone scatters leaving Patti in the guillotine, screaming, "I'll take the mark. I want the mark." (poor deluded soul) The blooper here is, the lady that was brought out with Patti and Wenda is not the same lady that was brought out at the end of "A Distant Thunder." This lady's name is Leslie. It should have been a "John" or a "Joey" that was with Patti. A clear blooper. Although there are a few bloopers in this series, I still believe this movie to be the closest to telling the Biblical account of the Great Tribulation period than any other End Times movies I have ever watched.

Members John81 Posted October 31, 2013 Members Share Posted October 31, 2013 It was after seeing "Thief in the Night" at a night service in an Assemblies of God church, and the pastor presenting the Gospel afterward, that I was saved back in 1981.

Members John81 Posted October 31, 2013 Members Share Posted October 31, 2013 Saw it thirty years ago. It was pretty awful. Poor quality, but the message got through to me that without Christ, I was lost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Arbo Posted October 31, 2013 Members Share Posted October 31, 2013 Is that the one in which the heroes used a calculator to figure out who the Antichrist was? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ASongOfDegrees Posted October 31, 2013 Members Share Posted October 31, 2013 I remember this series. It was pretty bad as far as quality but still good enough to be effective for a witness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Arbo Posted October 31, 2013 Members Share Posted October 31, 2013 a calculator was used, yes, but it was used to counterfeit the mark. Thanks. I think it's the same movie (don't think that I saw them all) that I was thinking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members John81 Posted October 31, 2013 Members Share Posted October 31, 2013 Thanks. I think it's the same movie (don't think that I saw them all) that I was thinking about. They were pretty good, especially back in the day when there really wasn't anything Christian like that at all. I think they ended up making a fourth movie several years after the others, which I thought was very weak and too long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators HappyChristian Posted October 31, 2013 Administrators Share Posted October 31, 2013 We have that series also. We have see a number of end times videos that are better done than these, but agree that this is the most in keeping with scripture. I remember seeing it as a youngster. It definitely made an impact on me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Standing Firm In Christ Posted October 31, 2013 Author Members Share Posted October 31, 2013 The first DVD, in the extras section, lists several movies that they put out. I'd like to get all of those (without coveting, of course) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
