Revelations DVD Release

NBC’s six hour mini-series Revelations will be released on DVD on June 28th. Revelations starred Bill Pullman and Natascha McElhone in a story loosely based on events written about in the Book of Revelations from the Bible. Revelations will be a 2 disc DVD set, no extra features are listed for the release.

Revelations

The time of miracles is once again at hand in the six-hour epic event, Revelations. Bill Pullman (Independence Day) stars as Harvard professor Dr. Richard Massey, an astrophysicist who’s certain that all worldly events can be explained by science. He is challenged by Sister Josepha Montafiore (Natascha McElhone, Solaris), a devout nun who leads him on a quest through a world of true believers, heretics and Satanists. Drawn together by personal tragedy, they are swept into a deepening mystery when they discover evidence that the world, as predicted by The Book of Revelations, has reached The End of Days. Join the battle for the fate of mankind in the electrifying phenomenon.

Although it hasn’t been released yet, Revelations is already scoring well in reviews on Amazon based on the NBC airing. I tried to watch it myself, but only made it to the end of the second episode before giving up. My feeling was that there was enough story for 3 episodes spread out over 6. It wasn’t bad, just slow to the point of being boring and the story jumped all over the place so much in the first two episodes that it was annoying.
