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.
Great CGI and martial arts lend themselves to a anime-flushed tale of intrigue and betrayal.
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 vague Go MATRIX or go B-Movie graphics,But please don't scare your core audience away ( Back cover is more what we want).
This movie is an obvious labor of love, That delivers to viewer not aware of the bells & whistles involved.
Cast was more than adequate, Many of the males have 'That Caesar ' haircut that's belies a Biblical nuance.
Entertaining movie, Extras include making-of featurettes that explain the effects for laypeople, Oh ! that soundtrack.
