This is the first in a four-part series of movies about the "end times". Girl wakes up and the rapture has happened. Half of the world's population has been taken to heaven and the other half have been left to fend for themselves. A worldwide organization called Unite sets up government and laws and eventually asks people to be identified by a mark on the forehead or hand like the apocalypse predicts. The new (left-over) christians don't want to get the Unite mark since the whole Revelations thing predicted it. So when Unite makes the marks mandatory to buy groceries or do any sort of transactions, it made things really difficult for christians. The end of the movie is a scene where the girl meets her friends on the dam and she realizes they are now the bad guys and ends up jumping off the bridge.
*Note – this set of movies was shown to kids in the 70's as scare tactics for putting the fear of god into kids. The whole fire and brimstone stuff. These movies are EXTREMELY scary and graphic for kids. Frantic running and scary apocalyptic end-of-times dialogue makes for some frightening images. Keep in mind these movies were made a while back and aren't all special-effecty like movies are today. AND I was a kid. This is the original "Left Behind" series.
