Twenty some years
have passed since the last movie, Danyael Jr. now grown up and making
his way as a street preacher preaching about God no longer caring
about mankind. His world view is based off a traumatic childhood
where once again the rebel angels tried to kill him, but ended up
killing his mother instead. The former
Archangel Gabriel, still a human, has been secretly guarding Danyael
his entire life. Gabriel has repented his evil ways and now loves
humanity, living life to its fullest. Zophael, who has replaced
Gabriel as the leader of the angels, has come to Earth with a plan to
revive the Angel of Genocide Pyriel, who will kill all life on Earth
and replace God... somehow.
Zophael wants to
kill Danyael before he can stop Pyriel, but this all goes awry and
Danyael does in fact kill the angel, despite being one of the least
convincing heroes in film history. God rewards Gabriel for his
changed ways by making him an angel again, and Gabriel exits the
franchise in a burst of white doves.
The co-writer of the previous film, Joel Soisson, stepped up to the plate to make this one in his directorial debut. This means we have someone on board who at least knows the material, and hopefully can bridge things into a worthy sequel. So where do they
go from here? Well, the Second War of the Angels still seems
unresolved so I'm thinking that's where we'll start. Get ready for a
fresh start on the franchise with A Ghoul Versus The Prophecy:
Uprising.
