Interesting facts

Left Behind: World at War is a 2005 American Christian thriller film and the third in the series of films based on the Left Behind book series. It was directed by Craig R. Baxley and produced by Cloud Ten Pictures. The film premiered in churches on October 21, 2005, before its release on DVD and VHS on October 25, 2005. It was based primarily on the last fifty pages of the 1996 novel Tribulation Force and is currently the last film in the Left Behind film series, as a new adaption of the first book was made and released on October 3, 2014. The film ends with a cliffhanger that is never resolved as the producers decided not make a fourth installment.

Production

Filming took place in Toronto, Ontario. Clarence Gilyard Jr. was originally signed to reprise his role of Bruce Barnes but could not return due to a scheduling conflict. As a devout Catholic he has also said his priest was happy he did not reprise the role, as the films portray a premillennial rapturist theology that is in opposition to the Catholic Church's amillennial teachings.
