The red band trailer for Rapture-Palooza features Ken Jeong as God, Craig Robinson as Satan, and Anna Kendrick looking hot

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

There seems to be a lot of comedies focusing on the Apocalypse these days. This summer, we will get two in the Seth Rogen directed THIS IS THE END and RAPTURE-PALOOZA. While THIS IS THE END seems to be more of PINEAPPLE EXPRESS meets END OF DAYS, RAPTURE-PALOOZA looks like a combination of ZOMBIELAND meets THE STAND.

This red band trailer for RAPTURE-PALOOZA turns up the profanity and actually made me laugh a few times, despite the low budget effects. Craig Robinson as Beast (aka Satan) and Ken Jeong as God was enough for me to want to check this movie out. Also seeing Anna Kendrick rocking a tight white dress was a nice plus as well. Check out the trailer below.

Here’s the plot:

When the Apocalypse actually happens and a billion people are raptured up to heaven, Lindsey (Kendrick) and her boyfriend Ben (Daley) are left behind in suburban Seattle. The young couple try their best to lead a normal life surrounded by talking locusts, blood rain showers, and pot-smoking wraiths. But when the Anti-Christ (Robinson) makes his home base in their neighborhood, Lindsey finds herself the object of his affection. With the help of her family, friends, and a lawn-mowing zombie neighbor, the young couple set off to stop the Anti-Christ from taking her as his bride… and just maybe, saving the world in the process.

Yes, that is FREAKS AND GEEKS’ John Daley as the lead. This looks like a fun time at the movies and definitely worth checking out when it hits theaters and on demand on June 7, 2013.
