Plot

In the chilling aftermath of a global nuclear cataclysm, Jim Maddison, a pragmatic rancher, has anticipated the unthinkable. He's prepared an isolated sanctuary for his daughter Louise, their friend Rick, a scientific geologist, and himself. Their refuge is carefully stocked with essential supplies, intended to endure until the lethal radiation dissipates. However, the trio's precarious survival plan takes an unexpected turn when the slick and manipulative Tony Lamont and his fiery girlfriend Ruby stumble upon their hideout. Tony's cunning ways and his disruptive presence pose a critical threat to their rationed supplies and the group's delicate trust. As tensions simmer, a fierce rivalry ignites between the geologist and the intruding crook, each vying for Louise's affections, while Ruby watches on with brewing discontent. But the human drama within their shelter is only part of their ordeal. As the weeks stretch into an interminable nightmare, they soon discover an even more horrifying adversary lurking in the nearby woods. A grotesque creature, a malformed byproduct of the nuclear devastation, spawned by the twisted genius of Paul Blaisdell, becomes their common enemy. In this desolate twilight world, the unlikely band of survivors must grapple with personal conflicts and dwindling resources while fending off a monstrous mutant. Their struggle for survival becomes a tense, high-stakes battle against the horrors of a world undone, and the monstrous creations that now inhabit it. Day the World Ended paints a chilling portrait of humanity's resilience and desperation in the face of unimaginable catastrophe.
