== Plot ==
In June 2024, 16-year-old Peyton Motes arrived in Los Angeles to visit 18-year-old Maddox Monk, who invited her to the host of Ilana Delevieluese's housewarming party at Belk South Park. In the play place, Peyton felt uncomfortable at the crowded party, so Maddox accompanied Peyton to the convenience store to buy some food and root beer. When blue beams sucked numerous people into the sky, Maddox and Peyton fled to Belk and found the party unharmed. As the earthquake strikes, and the crowd rushes outside, witnessing a sinkhole opening in the front yard. Several young adults and party guests are killed as Maddox, Peyton, Simon Hershey, Vincent Boyer, Nathaniel Lewis, Luxo Jr., Paxel, Spaxer, Maxo, and Luna Jr. all ran back inside the South Park mall in Belk where Peyton tells the remaining partygoers that the earthquake had destroyed most of Los Angeles. They took inventory of their supplies, set up a ration system, boarded up the mall, and waited for help. 
The next morning, Michael Norris, who crashed the party and fell asleep, woke up first and wasted the group's food and water due to his ignorance of the crisis. He disbelieved that the others told him about the events of the previous night until AUTO gets decapitated by an unseen creature outside. Anxieties rise due to the various conflicts, including Maddox and Peyton's growing estrangement and the other's doubtfulness of Peyton's belief that the natural disasters are the Apocalypse predicted in the Book of Revelation. Melanie Witte makes her way into the mall. However, she believes that the group is planning to rape her and leaves with the groups remaining water due to a misunderstanding. 
Nate goes for the water stored in the basement, but he encounters an unknown being, causing to believe Peyton's theory. Maddox and Peyton dug through the floor and found water, but Michael wastes most of it out of spite, others kick him out of the mall. Before leaving, Michael reveals that Peyton was in town 2 months prior but stayed at the hotel instead of Maddox because of their strained relationship. Simon annoyed Peyton, who punched him in the face. That night, Simon prays for Peyton to die and is possessed by a demon. The possessed Simon Hershey attacked Maddox and Ilana, but Nate and Peyton subdued Simon and tied him up. During the exorcism attempt, Maddox and Peyton fought and knocked over the candle, starting the fire that engulfs Simon and Belk, forcing the others outside.
Ilana suggests going back to North Carolina, but finds her car guarded by an Ender Dragon. Nate and Vincent volunteered to sacrifice themselves and were raptured into heaven alongside Luxo Jr. and his lamp friends when their plan succeeded; the others realized they can save themselves by performing a selfless act. On the way out of Los Angeles, The three encountered vicious cannibals led by Michael and his love interest and sex slave, Laysha Luna. When Ilana volunteered to sacrifice herself, the blue beam began to pull her to Heaven, but when Ilana taunted and insulted Michael, the beam vanished, and Michael and his fellow cannibals eat Ilana alive while Maddox and Peyton fought the cannibals out to escape and encounter MechaGigan. Peyton apologized to Maddox for her wrongdoings and they both share an embrace while MechaGigan attempts to smash them. A beam struck Peyton, she began to ascend while Maddox didn't. Peyton grabbed Maddox's hand, but Maddox's presence prevented them from ascending into Heaven. Maddox forced Peyton to leave him behind, after which another beam appears around Maddox.
The pair arrived in heaven, they reunited with Nate, Vincent, Luxo Jr., and their friends, who told them that any wish came true. After Peyton wished for The Living Tombstone, the music performed "Five Nights at Freddy's 1 Song" as Maddox and all of his clan in Heaven danced.

Certifications: PG-13 (USA), M (Australia), TV-14 (TV rating, theatrical Disney+ rating), TV-PG (edited version), TV-MA (uncut), R-15 (Germany), PG-12 (Japan), 13+ (Turkey), VM14 (Italy), 12+ (Colombia), R (Indonesia), 14A (UK, DVD rating)
Here's why it's a hard PG-13 movie:
Sex and Nudity- Moderate | (8)
* Mild rude humor, double-entendres, sexual references, and brief partial nudity. 
* Depictions of nude creatures, nothing explicit. 
* Girls seen in the bikini. 
*"Booby-bang" and "tickle-touch" have all been use once or twice. 
* Ilana blamed Michael for spooging on the LEGO magazine. 
* Some uses of "shuck my corn". 
* Nathaniel Lewis wore a shirt that read "Keep Yo' Underclothes On!" 
* A ghast raped Simon Hershey, which possessed him.
Violence and Gore- Moderate | (7) 
* Strong bloody violence and images of carnage, natural disasters, slapstick, fighting and arguing, and a ton of explosions and fire. 
* A group of young adults fought in each scene. 
* AUTO gets decapitated by an unseen creature, robot blood shown. 
* Melanie punched Maddox in the face harder that broke his nose (mild blood seen on a tissue). 
* Peyton punched Simon in the face. 
* Possessed Simon Hershey attacked Maddox and Ilana. 
* Maddox dragged Peyton off the bed in the exorcism attempt.
Language- Mild | (12) 
* A fair amount of mild language throughout the movie: 
* About 5 scatological terms (4 uses of "shit", 1 use of "piss off")
* 67 mild obscenities (24 uses of "hell", 13 uses of "freaking", 2 uses of "boobs", 7 uses of "damn", 5 uses of "flipping", 16 uses of "crap")
* 21 anatomical terms (12 uses of "ass", 1 use of "man breasts", 8 uses of "balls")
* 5 derogatory terms (1 use of "bastard", 3 uses of "bitch", 1 use of "jackass")
* 12 religious profanities (uses of "goddamn")
* 11 replacements for "fuck you" (1 use of "screw you", 6 uses of "blast you", 4 uses of "forget you")
* Various utterances of religious exclamations (several uses of "Jesus," "Oh my God," and "Christ")
*"Shuck my corn" has been used twice by Nate and Ilana (which is the replacement of "suck my dick/balls").
*Peyton dropped her middle finger at Maddox (difficult to see) when he dragged her off the bed. 
* 5 obscene gestures.
*Some insults and mild name-calling and rude humor (fool, stupid, dumb, imbecile, traitor, idiot, liar, butthole, insane, cray-cray, sell-out, crazy, coward, psycho, etc.)
Alcohol, Drugs, and Smoking- Mild | (3) 
* Maddox and Peyton went out to buy some root beer at the convenience store. 
* A group of young adults did drugs all day, and drank some ecstasy in some Diet Coke. 
* Some kinds of drug uses and references and various scenes of smoking, drinking, addiction, hallucinations, and drunkenness. 
Frightening and Intense Scenes- Severe | (6) 
* Much more violent, gory, darker, and scarier than This is the End, Bendy and the Dark Revival, Watership Down (which was PG-rated), and South Park. 
* MechaGigan was about 492 feet tall, that would be intimidating. Maybe inappropriate for viewers under 14. 
* It's a PG-13 movie before the R-rating. Disney+ has updated mature content for 18+ and released R-rated films instead of NC-17. 
*The PG rating has been outdated (it was questionable during the theatrical release). It contains a bit of sex, mild language, strong violence, and depictions of urban disaster and serious injuries. It probably might receive a PG-13 rating on Disney+ if made today. If not, maybe rated R.
* Fighting scenes, natural disaster depictions, hostile monsters and demons from Hell, and apocalyptic events may be too frightening for younger kids. 
* Contains flashing lights, loud noises, and jumpscares.
