"Four Stars.... war epic Heaven is Hell is at turns blasphemous and other times absurd, but it is also extremely entertaining. Quick witted as it turns Biblical characters and religious scenarios on their ears, the film has a little something for everyone in its war-torn Heavenly wasteland."
Mark Bell, Film Threat
The film follows Faith, a recently deceased Christian woman, who wakes up in a post-apocalyptic wasteland, populated by gnarled creatures and machine gun-toting misfits. When it is revealed that this wasteland is actually Heaven and the gun-toting misfits are actually the apostles, she finds herself in the middle of a fight for her afterlife.
It’s a cult classic in the making, and is gaining momentum with excited fans, festival awards (Best Sci-Fi/Fantasy Feature: Famous Monsters of Filmland) and glowing reviews; Mark Bell of Film Threat says: “Four Stars.... war epic Heaven is Hell is at turns blasphemous and other times absurd, but it is also extremely entertaining. Quick witted as it turns Biblical characters and religious scenarios on their ears, the film has a little something for everyone in its war-torn Heavenly wasteland.”
What others are saying:
“Low budget movie making at its best”
“Zerach and Judas are absolutely my favorite movie villain and hero!”
“Destined to become a cult classic!”
