Trust: Just a five-letter word, but one that carries more weight in this world than any could fathom. What happens when sabotage, deceit, and betrayal push trust to the breaking point? When Midael and Abaddon, two enhanced humans (Chimaeras: Midael with 15' long metal wings that shoots out like daggers, Abaddon/Job with a 15' long metal tail can manipulate energy), become part of a high-stakes and violent game of cat-and-mouse. Each Chimaera learns just how much trust can be lost when everyone they meet has an agenda. Soon, the two must change their own agendas as they are dragged further into a chaotic realm of hatred, illusion, and death. When the pieces finally fall into place, where will their allegiances lie? As trust becomes merely a myth, will they find themselves becoming part of the very organizations that sought to use them, or will they break free and seek out destinies of their own making? THE RAPTURE is a very bad sci-fi superhero movie, shot on video back in 2007. The low-fi quality of the filming makes it look really shoddy and dated and not at all like the futuristic, glossy movie the director was hoping for. The story is about a couple of guys with super powers who end up doing very little aside from chatting, and there's a real car crash quality to the whole thing, so it's difficult to look away from the sheer rubbishness of it all. THE RAPTURE www.rapturethemovie.com A Johnny K Wu 'Live Anime' Bio-engineered angel and Scorpion-based character takes us on a fascinating adventure.<br/><br/>Great CGI and martial arts lend themselves to a anime-flushed tale of intrigue and betrayal.<br/><br/>We always pick on the covers, Betraying our sales background, 'Rapture' comes with a cover reminding one of Frank Miller's SIN CITY. It's artsy-fartsy look is impressive and vagueÂ…Go MATRIX or go B-Movie graphics,But please don't scare your core audience away ( Back cover is more what we want).<br/><br/>This movie is an obvious labor of love, That delivers to viewer not aware of the bells & whistles involved.<br/><br/>Cast was more than adequate, Many of the males have 'That Caesar ' haircut that's belies a Biblical nuance.<br/><br/>Entertaining movie, Extras include making-of featurettes that explain the effects for laypeople, Oh ! that soundtrack.
