It’s taken long enough, but finally God has had enough with humanity and so sends the archangel Gabriel (Kevin Durand) to eradicate mankind from the face of the earth. This is all going quite smoothly until the last bastion of humanity star...

Awesome awesome movie. Now I wish their were sequels to this movie. The old lady freaked me out when I first saw this. That scene alone got me hooked on this movie.
