The generic style title makes it sound going in like a just another end-of-everything flick, and OK to approach just as a mindless way to kill some time on a stay-in evening. It's got a limited budget as you'd expect, but the script manages to offer a few new ideas.
Stonehenge, due to its mysterious origin, creator, and purpose, is ripe for one of these "way out" doomsday prophecy themed stories. Without giving away too much, weird stuff starts happening at the famous site. Other similar ancient shrines all over the world also seem to be effecting odd behavior. (Warning: essential cliché hero alert:) The hero is a brilliant rogue scientist who's into conspiracy theories, lol. Throw in a general who wants to nuke stuff, a cult with a demented prophet, some high powered alien contraptions, and an "ancient artifact" that looks like it was taken from a 1962 Ford Falcon.
Oddly enough, the thread of the story is all tied together pretty nicely. The story is told well, although the resolution of things takes some doing to swallow. Cheap, but a fair way to spend some time.
