Plot:
Note: the names may have been mutilated with bad spelling.
We see the space station that looks like the one from Attack From Space. Also, see a rocket flying through space. The
omniscient narrator tells us that a robot assassin has killed "the most brilliant mind in the universe" Balazar. He managed to build a device to preserve his
brain. And now wants to conquer the universe. Talk about someone trying to overcompensate for a disadvantage. Have there ever been any good brains? Krang
from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles was evil. They Saved Hitler's Brain It might not be an absolute but a good rule of thumb. Any brain separated
from its body will turn evil.
On the Emerald Planet, the High Council debates what to do.
Would you trust these guys?
Exactly, the same thing they did in Attack From Space. Apparently, EB (Evil Brain) will conquer Earth using nuclear weapons. The radiation will go into space and
endanger other worlds. So, EB has to taken care of before, it's too late.
The Emerald High Council decides to give the globe meter to the steel hard Starman. At least, they say from the beginning he's steel hard. Now, the globemeter is
worn around the wrist and gives the user 3 powers: flight, ability to detect radiation, and the ability to speak and understand all Earth languages.
It's a nice watch
On Earth, a man with a suitcase is being chased by the police. After being trapped in a dead end, he tries to escape, drops the suitcase from the dock. And, the
cops arrest him. All the time, the man is screaming about the brain.
The man, Kuwada, is taken to the police station and doesn't stop mentioning the brain. If this were years later, the cops would think he was a serial killer ranting
about a brain like he's doing. Kuwuda tells the story of how the EB is controlling his boss, Dr. Kurikowa. But, Dr. Kurikowa who calls the police to tell him Kuwada
is harmless and just stressed from work and there is no brain. Well, his word must be good because the police let Kuwada go. They could hold him from resisting
arrest, etc...
Dr. Kurkiowa orders his men to kill Kuwada. A group of Japanese business men wearing handkerchiefs over their faces in Westerns grab Kuwada. But, he is
saved by a mysterious business man, who is Starman. Starman wants to know what has happened.
Kuwada tells a scientist, scientist's kids, and Starman about the EB. The EB is also hard to kill. Starman gives the kids a signal crystal to use if they need
him. The scientist, Dr. Sakurai, begins research on how to kill the EB. I wonder what the guy's dissertation was onto be the world's expert on killing evil brains.
The Obvious Evil Henchman (or OEH for short) reports to Dr. Kurikowa. They've found the EB and are in the process of retrieving it.
A train is going down the tracks when it derails. Suddenly, it turns into an electric train set that follows off the tracks. A ship is sunk by the giant
monster. Hospitals are filled with victims of these attacks as cops are sent to look for the monster responsible.
The kids and Kuwada read the newspaper account of the attacks. Kuwada wants to get some Kurikowa's research to learn more about the EB. These are some
whiny kids compared to those in Attack from Space
A police detective follows Kuwada into Kurikowa's house. He’s looking for Kurikowa's notes as OEH attacks and knocks him out. Kurikowa and OEH go
into the yard. We see that Kurikowa who needed a wheelchair earlier can walk. Theyuse the secret elevator to go into the base. The detective finds Kuwada.
In the secret Zemar base, guys wearing bat costumes that have the bat symbol on the chest. But, the bat symbol has a skull for a head. They stand at attention
for their leader. They need to discover if Dr. Sakurai has found a way to kill EB. The Zemarians look like knockoff Batmen. It's almost sad to say that they make
Adam West look like a good Batman. But a question does remain if a woman had on the costume would she look like Batwoman in the Wild Wild World of
Batwoman
We are the Batman Revenge Squad
Dr. Sakurai is in his lab. The Evil Mutant monster charges at him. Starman appears in time to fight it. The Evil Mutant flies away. Starman chases after it. They
fight some more. The narrator informs us that the Evil Mutant has solid cobalt nails which could actually hurt Starman. In Dragonball Z , when the characters
fight they sometimes just look like they teleport between backgrounds fighting. Animation has advantages like that. But, Starman and the Evil Mutant fight they jump
and, the shot is cut to them landing at another location and the fight continues. The cops finally get to the fight. Don't shoot at Evil Mutants it causes some of them to
divide in 2 and escape.
Grrr, I'm scary...
The Narrator informs us that evil mutants rob stores to afford food and clothes. They stage a jewelry store robbery. Apparently, they need to capture a mutant to
learn more about them.
The mutants steal the defense plans from a scientist. The scientist's kids coming back from a birthday party hide in an alley as two suspicious guys, the mutants,
look through a briefcase. The detective passes them and follows them. He finds the injured scientist and tries to get help for him from a private hospital which at first
is reluctant to help. But, the doctor agrees to help. It is cover from a secret Zemar base. The Zemarians surround the kids. Starman in a business suit fights
them. The detective gets the kids away.
In the Zemarian base, the leader is waiting to receive the attack orders from EB. The Zemarians report Starman's interference. Dr. Sakurai is trying to find a
formula to keep mutants from dividing and to kill the EB. The detective has some suspicions about the private hospital. They weren't able to save the scientist the
mutants attacked. Apparently, gross incompetence or sometimes hospitals can do everything and it still is found lacking doesn't figure into detective's reasoning. Or, it
could have been a killer nurse... The possibilities are endless.
The Zemarians have to eliminate the scientist's kids. Because, they saw them after the attack and can identify them. Well, Starman is there to prevent it from
happening.
The boy gets sick and his sister who is like 12 at the oldest gets him admitted to the private hospital. The doctor is evil. He goes into a secret passage which the
boy manages to see him open. In the Zemar base, the leader tells the soldier Zemarians the plan for the final assault. The boy overhears it all. The Zemarians see
him and start to chase him.
The sister is worried about her brother. Starman in the business suit will investigate. She then calls the police. Starman finds the Zemrian base, probably from its
radiation signature. They never really say why. Well, the Zemarians fight Starman who throws a few into the walls. The Zemarians retreat...
The Zemarian plan is to kill all government officials. Some government leaders return from a summit. The Zemarians surround the leader who is wearing some
kind of wrap that covers his head. Surprised Zemarians see that it is actually Starman to draw them out Zemarians manage to escape and are followed by
Starman. They try to shoot at Starman to know effect. The fight starts. And, the fight ends when the Zemarians are surrounded by cops.
Zemarian mutants are attacking people. At an amusement park, we see the traditional things: rides, cotton candy, etc...Some woman sees the White-Faced-Witch
Woman with Killer-Claws (WFW for short) and passes out or dies. Next, in a ballet school, the WFW appears and touches a girl who falls over.
White-Faced-Witch Woman with Killer-Claws
Some guy delivers plans to the older scientist, Dr Okawa. Okawa doesn't pay much attention to him. He then goes into his secret lab. I've lost track of how many
secret bases and labs are in this movie so far. I think it was 3 but not sure. Dr. Okawa creates mutants and talks loving to "Super Germ", which is the source of all the
mutants.
Mutant army prepares for the attack. How long have they been preparing? Starman is looking for the mutant's base. It isn't under the mansion of famed
geneticist Dr. Charles Xavier.... He's also looking for the cause of the germs that kill people. Starman is trying to get the information from a dying man. But, the
man dies before telling Starman. He keeps up his search
Okawa is afraid that Starman will find his base. Defense forces are notified. Starman is in the base fighting the Zemarians. These aren't soldiers in the costume
of the Bat. But, medical technicians and the like. Okawa releases the most powerful mutant to kill Starman. Okawa orders the WFW to kill Starman.
As the cops head to the base, Starman is fighting. The WFW appears and starts attacking Starman. The cops round up the Zemarians Starman kills the WFW
who explodes. The "Super Germ" vanishes and Dr. Okawa dies. It may sound like I'm glossing over these details but it all happened so fast. Suppose the death of
WFW who was the most powerful mutant was somehow still linked to the "Super Germ" caused a backlash which destroyed it. Dr. Okawa had a heart attack from
the death of his best friend: "Super Germ." There is still the matter of a nuclear device to eliminate.
The world is preparing for the Zemarian attack. Starman is looking for Balazar. The Evil Mutant that escaped Starman before is attacking a world leader. Starman
arrives to fight him once again. But, the mutant escapes. So Starman follows the mutant to find the supreme headquarters where the EB is.
Starman is fighting the Batman rip-offs. Starman is said to be made of steel. So, the man of steel is fighting an army of Batmen. The Zemarians try to get the
EB away. Starman is fighting the Zemarians and the Evil Mutant. Cops show up to get the Zemarians. The Evil Mutant is killed and melts away.
In a Scooby Doo mystery moment, Starman learns Kurikowa is the leader. Dr. Sakurai shows up with the formula. They unlock the room where the EB is
hidden. Sakurai dumps the formula on the EB which will kill all of the mutants, too. The formula works. Starman is going back to the Emerald Planet and flies away.
