Well here goes the plot. A family living in some part of the American southwest desert gets trapped in some interstellar time and space warp. That's about it for the plot of this low budget science fiction film.
The film is loaded up with has been and no name actors who I can at least say perform professionally. Next to the decent looking special effects made on a tight budget it looks like the cast was the second biggest item in the film's budget because it sure the hell wasn't the story.
This film apparently employed a lot of special effects technicians who were underemployed or unemployed. There are decent optical, stop motion special effects and old style matte paintings to give credit where it's due. But overall the film has that look of an after school teacher assigned project. You can thank the success of Star Wars for propagating stuff like this on the viewing public
There are amazingly enough three writers credited, Wayne Schmidt, J. Larry Carroll and David Schmoeller, the running time for a film without a story is 79 minutew.
