It Came From Inner Space...

Dr. Jennifer Stillman (Nastassja Kinski) is a NYC therapist who takes a job in a small town as an elementary school psychologist. Dr. Stillman gets the cold shoulder from nearly the entire town, which seems to be hiding a dark secret. She meets and befriends a young boy who is feared and shunned by the townsfolk. Meanwhile, a series of grisly deaths occur, committed by a slithery, tentacled monster that is somehow connected to the boy.

THE DAY THE WORLD ENDED is a sci-fi / horror film with some dark humor thrown in. The characters are fun, with Randy Quaid being the standout as the town doctor. The school principal and nurse are also hilarious, especially during their "love" scene! An entertaining movie, with great special effects by Stan Winston...
