* SoBadItsGood: While both films are flawed, they are enjoyable thanks to the actors, the cheesy special effects, and low production values. In the first film, it helps its more subtle with its message than one would expect from a Evangelical flim.
* SpecialEffectFailure: The lightning from the second movie looks horrible.
** Stone's final form is an unsubtle-looking CGI demon.

* StrawmanHasAPoint: In the first movie, a reporter questions why Gillen Lane believes in the Bible Code if he doesn't believe in God or Jesus. This is a good question that the movies never answers.

* {{Sequelitis}}: While the first movie has some subtlety and focuses more on the thriller and mystery to make the low-budget movie enjoyable even to secular or non-Christian minded viewers, not to mention it profits a bit, the second movie drops all subtlety, especially on the final act, coupled with terrible CGI and low budget attempt at making a BigBadassBattleSequence, failed to impress viewers and it was a BoxOfficeBomb.

* OneSceneWonder: R. Lee Ermey doesn't get CompleteMonster: {{Satan}} proves himself to do much be an utter monster in Megiddo both films:
** ''The Omega Code'': In the first movie, Satan possesses [[TheAntiChrist Stone Alexander]] after he is shot in the head, healing Stone and becoming [[OneWorldOrder Chancellor of the United World]]. When two prophets confront him, Satan has them killed and [[DeadGuyOnDisplay hung on display]] to serve as a warning to his enemies. When Satan learns that several countries under his rule are seceding from him, he plots to [[NukeEm launch a nuclear strike]] against them,
but when he makes learns that Gillian Lane has the most final Bible Code, Satan offers to call off the attack in exchange for the code. However, after Lane gives the code to him, Satan reveals that [[ILied he is going to initiate the attack anyway]].
** ''The Omega Code 2: Megiddo'': In the second movie, Satan possesses Stone when Stone is a [[EnfantTerrible young child]], trying to have him [[SiblingMurder burn his baby brother]], David, alive. When Stone becomes an adult, he becomes President
of it anyway.the European Union and forms a [[OneWorldOrder world government]], with Satan forcing him to kill countless dissidents against his regime. When the U.S. President refuses to join Satan's world order, Satan murders him, and when the new president, David, also refuses to join his regime, Satan has him [[FrameUp framed for his father's murder]], which Satan committed. Satan also plots to wage war against countries that defy him.

* HarsherInHindsight: One of the plot points in "Megiddo" involves Stone using a doctored video in an attempt to frame his brother David for murdering their father a decade before the main events of the plot (actually done by Stone), and when showing the doctored video to David in an attempt to intimidate him into going along with Stone's [[OneWorldOrder one world government]]; David attempts to point out there were witnesses to the fact he was dancing inside the ballroom before Stone dismisses it by noting people would believe anything on television, something which becomes very chilling considering the recent technological advances leading to controversy over the potential use of what are known as "[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deepfake deepfakes]]".
