I mostly love B-movies but...Ouch! This is bad. It was nearly impossible to get a sense of scale and there was no indication of how a triple supernova event affected the rest of world outside of Jim Davis's little solar-powered ranch in the desert. A planet changing effect is implied but you never see any indication until the final, poorly done matte painting at the movie's conclusion. And Jim Davis's character has absolutely no evidence that supports his ridiculously optimistic statement that ends this horrible flick.

I did like the stop-motion fight between two beasts but it was not satisfying because you could not tell how large the monsters were. They were literally fighting with nothing around them but darkness. Later, one of the creatures attacks a horse barn and its size is revealed. I also can't believe how bad the editing is. I think I saw the grandson put the same blanket on the same horse like three times.

The whole movie makes zero sense. Dorothy Malone is absolutely horrid in her portrayal of ol' Grandma. I was laughing when she was on horseback. She always rode with one hand holding the bridle and the other on her hip. I wonder if she rode horses that way when she was doing silent films? Jim Davis is the grandfather that I've always wanted and the little girl that plays his granddaughter is pretty good. I also now have a crush on Marcy Lafferty, who plays Davis's thirty-something daughter.

I've spent way too much time on this because "The Day Time Ended" is probably one of the worst movies I've ever seen. Why I am drawn to this kind of awfulness remains a personal mystery.
