Sunday School Musical is a musical film mockbuster released direct-to-DVD on October 21, 2008. It is similar to Disney's High School Musical franchise, but the film takes a dramatically different approach in terms of storyline.
When financial woes threaten their church's future, a group of teens, led by one talented performer, enters a song and dance competition in hopes of winning a heavenly cash prize.
According to producer Paul Bales, the film was conceptualized after he and other staff members of The Asylum attended a seminar for marketing to a Christian audience. The seminar host suggested that the perfect movie would be a Christian version of High School Musical.
