From the studio that brought us Sound of Freedom, here is a convoluted parallel universe film based on the bible story โ€“ and yes, sitting through it is an ordeal

It's a shame really. It is possible to make good biblically inspired SF.

Eg. CS Lewis's Space Trilogy. Milton's Paradise Lost is arguably proto-SF. Inspired Ursula K. Le Guin's Paradises Lost. More famously, Frankenstein also draws heavily on Paradise Lost. The whole religion thing in Frank Herbert's work is also really interesting. Whether it's Dune or The Jesus Incident.

Of course, IME religious fundamentalists are unlikely to be well read, even reading the bible seems like a struggle for them. So you get turds like this.
