A Thief In The Night [1972] & Cow [2009]

Our first film of the night was a Christian film about the end of the world. At only an hour, it's worth your time although the main winning parts of the film are in the first half of the film where we get such wonderful quotes as, "All you need to give is your life" and "We met some really great guys." "I met Christ." The film sells the narrative that the end is near so you have to accept Jesus now because you might wake up in the rapture. This is what happens to one of three friends in the second half of the film. She must navigate the world where her husband and one friend is gone and everyone is getting stamped with some abstract representation of the number of the beast. It ends with her waking up from a dream but it's still the rapture so maybe she's in a Groundhog Dog situation.

Our second, shorter feature was an anti-texting and driving short from the UK with some stellar Welsh accents. The first ten minutes are kind of fun, but it gets serious quickly when a car accident causes multiple deaths. We need to stop watching car accident PSAs because they really can only be so fun.
