What happens

Megiddo: The Omega Code 2 is a 2001 American apocalyptic action film directed by Brian Trenchard-Smith and starring Michael York, Michael Biehn, Diane Venora, R. Lee Ermey, Udo Kier and Franco Nero. It is a follow-up to the 1999 film The Omega Code, though rather than a direct continuation, it serves as part prequel and part alternate retelling. Like its predecessor, Megiddo was co-produced by the Trinity Broadcasting Network (TBN) and premiered there. It had a significantly larger budget ($20 million) than its predecessor ($7.6 million), but was less enthusiastically received. It has developed a cult following in some circles, and Nathan Rabin described it as "delirious, top-notch camp." (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
