John "Bud" Carlos been behind so many movies that others would spit upon, such as The Dark and Kingdom of the Spiders. Now, he's back with a movie for the hip now generation. It's time to talk about solar energy. It's time to talk about the world after this one. It's time to be bored senseless.
The Williams family has moved to the Sonoran Desert to get away from the dangers of urban life. There's Grant (Jim Davis, who many would know from TV's Dallas but around these parts, we know him from being in Jesse James Meets Frankenstein's Daughter), the grandfather. And then there's his wife, Ana (Dorothy Malone, who won a Best Supporting Actress for Written on the Wind and had to suffer through this film), son Richard (Chris Mitchum, who we know from Bigfoot), his wife Beth and their kids, Steve and Jenny.
The mysteries of this film start small, like the news talking about a triple supernova and glowing things behind the barn. But soon, we learn that that supernova has torn a hole in the fabric of reality, unleashing UFOs and shutting down the electricity in the Williams home. And before you can say "stop motion" there are miniature lizard creatures that look like they came straight out of Laserblast walking around.
All manner of creatures begin attacking the family, who take refuge in their barn. Then, they're all beamed up in a UFO and taken thousands of years into the future. The film ends deus ex machina style with the grandfather saying that the domed city in the distance is why they must have survived...THE DAY TIME ENDED.
You know when you see Charles Band's name on a movie that there are going to be all manner of stop-motion characters. This one delivers. And delivers. And...you get the picture.
If you want to see this yourself, prepare your brain for pure ennui.
