Plot

Laced with black humor, and a theatrical parody, The Final Judgment recounts the story of a pilot, Man, who is the only survivor of a supposed World War. The film looks at how Man will cope when he has to face God, Death and Father Time, in what will be his Final Judgment.

Influences

The film is claimed to be the first to depict the character of God using an actress.
The film utilised many ironic references to the first Gulf War, which had just finished when the film was made.
