Porn Version of “Left Behind” Less Amusing Than Original

Hollywood, CA — A pornographic version of the popular 2014 Christian end of times film Left Behind ironically is less amusing than the film it sets out to mock.

Released just 4 days after the mainstream version of  Left Behind starting Nicholas Cage, Left Behind: This Is Where You End Up staring porn actress Sasha Grey in her comeback role, failed to raise the kind of laughs people were hoping for after watching the October 4th version in theaters.

“I was kinda hoping for some real laughs, you know?” commented a confused Grass Valley resident Jeff Sanborn in a The Fazzler interview. “The Nicholas Cage version was nearly as funny as the Kirk Cameron version, but we still had a good laugh. But this Sasha Grey version seemed even more hastily put together and certainly not funny. Hot, but not funny at all.”

The basic premise of the popular Left Behind book series and subsequent films is about a small group of survivors who are left behind after millions of people suddenly vanish in a Christian Rapture and the world is plunged into chaos and destruction.

Rapture is a term in Christian eschatology which refers to the “being caught up” discussed in 1 Thessalonians 4:16, when the “dead in Christ” and “we who are alive and remain” will be “caught up in the clouds” to meet “the Lord in the air”. This is generally considered very bad for people “Left Behind,” hence the name of the book series. The Rapture, besides being an ignorant reading of Biblical scripture, is an enormous cash-cow for charlatans looking to cash in on fearful and gullible Christians.

“I dunno,” continued Mr. Sanborn, “maybe I should watch Sasha Grey just one more time. You know, maybe it’s an ironic form of humor that comes after multiple views. Like Monty Python. I’m gonna watch it a few more times and let you know.”
