“There was supposed to be a sequel. I don't think that ever came out. Um, uh, there was never a really bad B-grade version of it like Left Behind did with Kirk, like Kirk Cameron and all that.”
“Bert Gummer is a character that fell directly out of unintended consequences. It it it is worth it doesn't really stand out in the movie, but it is worth noting that he and his wife in 30 seconds go from huddling in their basement to making pipe bombs on the roof.”
