A Thief in the Night was a pioneer in Christian film, bringing elements of horror into the genre. It was one of the first films to explore dispensational rapture theology within a fictional motif. The film became one of the decade's most widely distributed films and has been highly influential in the evangelical film industry and American evangelical youth culture. It is credited with influencing the Left Behind franchise.
