Plot:
In a space station, 2 guys are talking and then notice some strange glow envelope the Earth.
The Earth Defense Force is trying to explain the numerous freak occurrences that have been happening lately like mysterious letters appear in the sky. The EDF reorganizes
scientists and soldiers into Emergency Science and Defense Squads (ESDS for short).
Captain Adams is asked to lead the Far East Zone ESDS. He agrees if he gets an advanced ship, the Super Star.
Fat Man, AKA Marconi wants to join the ESDS. Glen, the designer of the
Super Star wants to join the ESDS, too.
At the ESDS base, Lieutenant Ann Johnson has joined the squad. Marconi, Adams, and Glen are also present. They have a strange robot cyborg thing that looks like
little robot from the Black Hole porked an Ewok.
Harris, the last member of the team, has yet to arrive from the space station.
Harris is flying to Earth when suddenly, a red glow surrounds his ship. Harris and Ultra Man are facing each other. Ultra Man tells him some
of what's happening. Ultra Man needs to use Harris’s body to exist on Earth. Harris awakens on his ship, thinking that it was a dream.
In the polar region, an iceberg cracks. Ultra Man must warn Earth aboutthe prehistoric monsters that have been awakened. Harris finally meets
up with the rest of the ESDS.
When the alarm sounds, the team heads off in to action. Ann finds this small star and hands it to Harris. He realizes the meeting with Ultra
Man was real. They all load up in the Super Star and are airborne. One of their scout ships lands on the iceberg. Marconi and Harris
take samples. They get off the iceberg as it starts listing badly, and the
iceberg breaks apart freeing the polar monster.
The ship follows the monster. They have to stop it before it gets to the heavily populated coast, but various cool weapons are tried but
fail. The polar monster with its freezing breath is close to the coast. Each of the ESDS members attacks in their fighters.
The polar monster splits into multiple monsters. Now, they have 4 polar monsters to fight. Harris hears a voice tell him to place the
star on his forehead. The transformation scene begins, and Harris becomes Ultra Man who grows to giant size. Ultra Man kung fues one of the
monsters. 2 of the monsters freeze each other. The narrator informs us that Ultra Man has a short supply of energy on Earth. The star on his
chest is a color timer, and he becomes weaker as the color changes. Ultra Man is about out of energy. He uses a beam to destroy the monsters
and flies away. Ultra Man turns back into Harris, but Harris is to keep the secretof him turning into Ultra Man a secret.
After the fight, everybody thinks that Ultra Man is great…Well he saved no telling how many lives. Harris even mentions how great Ultra Man
is. I’m not sure if Harris winked when saying this like in every one of the old Max Fleischer Superman cartoons.
A new power plant is being powered by a whirlpool when a tornado attacks and destroys the plant. At the ESDS base, Harris and Ann are going
to investigate it. We learn that Ann’s birthday is really soon. Marconi has a pendant that Glen made to give to Ann, and he is less than happy
to learn that Harris is going on a mission with Ann not him.
Ann and Marconi are flying to the site. Marconi claims that Harris is sick, when in fact, Marconi locked him in the locker room. Marconi
tries to get some brownie points with Ann because Harris isn’t there.
They investigate the wreckage. Marconi gives Ann the pendant which she refuses for some reason. Marconi throws it away, but Ann picks it
up.
Harris is flying to where the tornado will strike next. Ann and Marconi catch up with him. The tornado is attacking a dam, and the tornado
is alive. Marconi rushes the tornado to attack it, but he crashes. While Harris checks on him, the tornado captures Ann.
Back at the base, Marconi blames himself for Ann. Well, it is his fault. The ESDS need to destroy the tornado’s power supply. They decide
to set a trap to lure the tornado. The ESDS base will crank up their power generation to maximum to lure the tornado to them.
Glen, Marconi, and Harris fly off to engage the tornado, while the base attacks the tornado. Marconi is going to find the tornado’s power
supply. Glen realizes that Ann’s pendant has a homing device in it. If she could activate it, they’ll be able to find her and think that she’s
at the power supply.
Harris turns into Ultra Man and grows to fighting size. Ultra Man can’t seem to do any damage. Marconi finds the heart of the tornado and
Ann, who activates the pendant. Everyone knows where to strike now. UltraMan charges the heart. He destroys it and grabs Ann Marconi’s planes
to get them out of the tornado before it explodes. Ultra Man flies away.
That night, the ESDS are celebrating Ann’s birthday except for Archer. He drives away, wondering about Ultra Man.
The ESDS has finally have gotten some leave due to things have calmed down. Suddenly, they are being recalled to duty. A big red cloud
is heading towards their base. The Super Star is prepped for flight. Flocks of birds are trying to escape the red cloud. Various
ways are attempted to disperse the cloud. The cloud is alive. Marconi gets a sample of the cloud. Glen takes the sample to the ESDS base to
study it. Several weapons are used on the cloud to no effect.
Glen has the cloud sample analyzed and discovers the cloud isn’t a gas. It really is alive. More lab tests reveal rain congeals the cloud
into a solid mass.
The cloud monster attacks whatever is around it. Marconi and Harris attack it. The monster is underwater. The Super Star attacks
it. They’re
trying to keep the creature from destroying the dam. Harris lands and turns into the giant sized Ultra Man. Sunlight weakens the monster, turns
it back into a vapor cloud state. Ultra Man takes the cloud into outer space. After this mess is over, they get a prank call about another red
cloud. Hilarity ensues…
A giant crocodile monster is attacking the city. The military responseis totally ineffective against it. Glen and Marconi convince them to
quit wasting their missiles. Marconi rushes the creature with a rocket launcher, and he opens fire and somehow kills it.
We learn that giant crocodile was underground, awakened by explosions. The monster’s corpse is being hauled away. The monster isn’t
dead, it has incredible regenerative abilities.
Timmy finds a small strange lizard. He hears that the authorities believe that a baby monster is nearby. Timmy sneaks it into his room
and hides the lizard.
Back at ESDS base, Marconi is pacing around waiting to hear the test results on the crocodile. The next morning, Marconi learns that a
single cell of the crocodile can grow into another giant monster. He rushes off to search the area to find the crocodile.
In a cave, Timmy is feeding the monster, that hasn’t gotten that much bigger. But, it has grown.
ESDS are searching.
Marconi is talking with some kids who mention Timmy has a strange lizard. Marconi has a time convincing Timmy to let him see the lizard, but
Timmy relents. Back at the cave, the lizard has grown even bigger. Timmy wants to keep it, and Marconi tries to convince him the creature will
grow into something dangerous. It is hard to think the animal is dangerous when an annoying brat named it “Baby”. Timmy, who can’t accept
reality, gets mad and runs off.
ESDS are heading to where Marconi has told them the monster is. Marconi convinces Timmy to go to town with him to get supplies to build a
cage for Baby.
By the time the ESDS arrive, Baby has grown into an adult giant monster crocodile. Glen heads to the Super Star. In town, people
hear about the monster. Timmy is angry that Marconi told the ESDS and heads back to the cave.
The Super Star can’t seem to scratch the crocodile. Harris sneaks away to transform into the giant-sized Ultra Man who fights the
crocodile.
Whiny Timmy doesn’t believe that Baby is a giant killing machine. Can’t the giant crocodile eat this kid so he will stop whining? He’s crying
when he realizes this is his fault.
More copies of the crocodile monsters are fighting the surrounded UltraMan. Marconi thinks that salt water weakens them. Ultra Man tosses
them into the sea, killing the monsters. He flies away.
Timmy is sad when he realizes if not for Ultra Man the town would have been destroyed. Harris rejoins the rest of ESDS and no one mentions
that he missed the fight.
