Christians Ready for The Antichrist to Shed His Mask

The highly anticipated Biblically themed actioner "The 4th Beast: Mask of the Antichrist" is headed into the final stages of but for those waiting for the late arriving film TimeCode Mechanics is offering a low priced Preliminary" version of the film.

Chicago, IL (PRWEB) August 21, 2004 -- This 4th Beast Preliminary version (http://www.customflix.com/206005) sales for $12.95 and includes the whole film minus the score along with all the trailers, an audio commentary and a musical slideshow. The DVD will also feature music by Anna DAloisio, Steve Hill and the Mounds and Chicago Hop-Hop producer, The Beatsmith".

Between piracy and public opinion some people feel this is a coffin nail for the production akin to the "Left Behind" strategy of going to video before releasing the film in theaters but director Nathyn Masters doesn't feel it's the same.

What people want to know the most is whose going to buy a film for $19.95 when they can get it for $12.95." say Masters, Some people just want to see the film others want all the fixing, its really a matter of what you want from your DVD. Not to mention others who may want review pieces or extra copies and don't need all the other stuff. Also $12.95 won't hurt the wallet too bad."

Inspired by endtime aficionado Steve Wohlberg's popular book "End Time Delusions" (http://www.endtimeinsights.com) - a scriptural and historical breakdown the Bible's prophesies concerning the Apocalypse - this is the only modern endtime film showcasing a less popular but more scripture based Post-Tribulation view shared by many Protestant Christians sects.

What Nathyn really wanted to do was make something different than what's out there." Says Associate Producer Christopher Free, Nathyns an action fan so we made an action film with a post tribulation message and minority characters as leads. All of these being things that are very different from whats been done in most endtime narratives."

Free also spoke about the money aspect of doing an action film on almost no budget. We did realized we only had a grand, probably less, so we worked with what we had. We know this film isnt LXG or T3 but if this film inspires other better funded projects and other streams of artistic thought then weve done what we set out too do."

There are also questions about piracy but Masters doesnt seem all that concerned. Well thats life in the big city. Times are tight right now so some people may want to save a little cash and offering the preliminary edition at a lower price may actually aid in preventing piracy. Otherwise what can you do?"

Currently the Master Edition" of the 4th Beast is set for a Fall/Winter release. Masters is currently starting pre production on Silvergun Samurai, an HK styled action film but is tossing around ideas for a possible better funded sequel to The 4th Beast.

"If there's an actual story and more to say, which I do believe there is, then I'll do another one but otherwise I'm not looking to pile on a bunch of sequels. I'm not really interested in milking the Christian audience and Endtime genre fans for money."
