A vote of 1 is too good for this movie. I stopped viewing after a few minutes.
You could tell from the start it was going to be awful with the cardboard acting.
The CGI must be an example of the worst CGI possible, it makes old Sinbad Plasticine creature look 100% real. ( I loved the old Sinbad movies as a kid)
Why do these people even bother? I downloaded it for free and feel cheated and criminal that it took space on my hard drive.
I worry about people that voted this above 1

So you have monsters coming out of a hole in the earth every fifteen years. Salt kills them. And no one thought to dump salt water in the hole? Just wondering.
I've given up on the SyFy Channel. This is typical of all their productions. Terrifying and spectacular scenes involving CGI monsters/aliens/whatever separated by deserts of arid narrative with little or no purpose other than taking the characters to the next scene involving CGI. It's just crap. Some visual engagement but zero intellectual value otherwise. The suits at SyFy either are idiots or venal purveyors of weird trash -- or both. Don't waste your time. There's so little artistic value, other than the yeoman efforts of the put-upon casts, that I honestly believe SyFy is soliciting scripts from middle-schoolers. With a title like "Day of Reckoning" and the very rare religious references made in dialog, one might suspect that some attempt at rationalizing the cause of a disaster threatening the existence of the human race might be made. One would be mistaken in that assumption. There's nothing here. Watching while drunk might improve the experience.
Not quite as bad as those from the 1950/60's, but surprisingly poor CGI for 2016: The monsters are visually obvious additions. At one point, a dog-like creature attacks a man who - instead of trying to use his hands, throws them up! The acting was OK, as was the dialogue. The plot had reasonable promise but only for about a half-hour. The interactions between good and bad guys was believable for the most part. I don't think any interaction between the monsters and anything else - buildings, humans or other monsters - was believable. Shocking when almost all films rely heavily on such nowadays. Perhaps Sc-Fi channel has too rigid production schedules, or lousy quality control?
When the world was invaded by underground creatures that wanted to wipe out mankind from Earth, the post-apocalyptic survivors called The Day of Reckoning. Fifteen years later, people have the same signs indicating that a new attack is coming and they seek out shelter for protection. What will happen to mankind this time?
"Day of Reckoning" is another SyfY Channel garbage with a lame and senseless story and awful computer-generated imagery. The plot begins with no explanation or character development. Then the viewer sees a teenager (Tyler) jeopardizing his family and friends with a stupid unexplained attitude. There is a fight to survive from his family and friends and nobody misses the death of his mother's girlfriend. Then his uncle and aunt die and nobody grieves. In the end they laugh as if they were on the beach of in a picnic, forgetting those who died. But the worst is that the appalling creatures that destroy the world are easily killed by salt and saltwater. My vote is three.
