His films were directed by Ron Ormond and produced by the Ormond Organization of Nashville, Tennessee.

The Burning Hell is a 1974 film created by Pirkle as his interpretation of what the Bible has to say about hell. It is available in Spanish, Portuguese, Malayalam, Tamil and English. The screenplay is by Ron Ormond. The companion movie The Believer's Heaven gives Pirkle's interpretation of what the Bible has to say about heaven. Pirkle's preaching was sampled by Negativland for the song "Christianity Is Stupid".
